Abu Idris al-Khawlani narrates: More than one of the Companions informed me of this, among them Sayyiduna Shaddad bin Aws (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him), that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "In the matter of the prescribed punishment (hadd), the pen has been lifted from the child until he grows up, from the one who is asleep until he wakes up, from the insane until he recovers, and from the one who is mentally deficient and utterly lost."
Al-Tabarani recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
