عن علي رضي الله عنه عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: «رُفِعَ الْقَلَمُ عن ثلاثة: عن النائم حتى يَسْتَيْقِظَ، وعن الصبي حتى يَحْتَلِمَ، وعن المجنون حتى يَعْقِلَ».

“‘Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There are three (people) whose actions are not recorded by the Pen: a sleeping person till he awakes, a boy till he reaches puberty, and a person with an unsound mind till he regains his sanity."”
