1688 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْوَاسِطِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: «رُخِّصَ لِلْكَبِيرِ الصَّائِمِ فِي الْمُبَاشَرَةِ، وَكُرِهَ لِلشَّابِّ»

Commentary

This difference between an aged and a young person is narrated on the authority of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ in Sunan Al-Bayhaqi (4/232). An aged person generally has more control of his desire than a young man.
