Narrated Atiyyah al-Qurazi: I was among the captives of Banu Qurayzah. They (the Companions) examined us, and those who had begun to grow hair (pubes) were killed, and those who had not were not killed. I was among those who had not grown hair.

The tradition mentioned above has also been transmitted by Abd al- Malik bin Umar through a different chain of narrators. This version has: They uncovered my private parts, and when they found that the hair had not begun to grow they put me among the captives.

Ibn Umar said: He was presented before the prophet ﷺ on the day of Uhd when he was fourteen years old, but he did not allow him (to participate in the battle). He was again presented before him on the day of Khandaq when he was fifteen years old, Then he allowed him.

Nafi said: When I mentioned this tradition to Umar. bin Abd al-Aziz he said: This prescribed punishment is between the minor and the major.
