Is a bequest validly entrusted to a sane minor?

Primary text

There is no explicit ruling from Ahmad on this matter, leading to the presumption that the bequest is invalid because he is not qualified for testimony or acknowledgment, and his actions require permission. Consequently, he is not fit for executorship, mirroring the status of a child or an insane person; he is under guardianship, thus cannot be a guardian. This is the established view of Al-Shafi'i and is considered correct.
