Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
Their Belief in Allah and their Retreat from their PeopleFrom here Allah begins to explain the story in detail. He states that they were boys or young men, and that they were more accepting of the truth and more guided than the elders who had become stubbornly set in their ways and clung to the religion of falsehood. For the same reason, most of those who responded to Allah and His Messenger were young people.
