The answer

It is authentically established in the sound Hadith that four will present their arguments on the Day of Resurrection: a deaf man, an imbecile man, an extremely old man, and a man who died during a fatrah (period of religious ignorance). A covenant will be taken from them to obey Allah, then it will be sent to them: "Enter the Fire." So, whoever enters it, it will be cool and peaceful for him, and whoever refuses will enter the Fire. It is also narrated that the infant, the insane, those who died during a fatrah, and the decrepit old man will be brought forth, and it will be said to them: "Enter a Fire that has been made manifest for you." So, whoever is destined for wretchedness will refuse, and whoever is destined for happiness will rush into it. Thus, some will be admitted to Paradise and others to Hell.
