Man Lā Yaḥḍuruh al-Faqīh|Volume 3|Book 3|Chapter 53
وَ رَوَى صَالِحُ بْنُ عُقْبَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ اَلْعَبْدَ اَلصَّالِحَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يَقُولُ: "تُسْتَحَبُّ عَرَامَةُ اَلْغُلاَمِ فِي صِغَرِهِ لِيَكُونَ حَلِيماً فِي كِبَرِهِ ".
Salih ibn Uqbah narrated that he heard the Righteous Servant (Imam Musa ibn Jafar Al-Kadhim عليه السلام) say: "It is recommended for a boy to be lively and energetic in his childhood so that he may grow to be gentle and patient in his adulthood."
