Commentary
Elderly age is a period when a person is mature and wise. In this period, knowledge and power of acting upon knowledge, both are fully developed. Logically, when they are leaders of the elderly people in the Paradise, they are also leaders of the grown up people. Hasan and Husain will be the leaders of the young people. (Tuhfat Al-Ahwadhi)
