Another source tells us exactly how it was determined, whether a person had reached puberty or not:


{{Quote| {{Abudawud|38|4390}}| Narrated Atiyyah al-Qurazi:
I was among the captives of Banu Qurayzah. They (the Companions) examined us, and those who had begun to grow hair (pubes) were killed, and those who had not were not killed. I was among those who had not grown hair.}}
