Caring For Orphans
Caring for orphans is a significant part of Islam. Orphans are mentioned 22 times in the Qur’an; their mistreatment is a serious sin, while nurturing and sponsoring them is an immensely valuable good deed.
Here’s how this good deed is beneficial in this life and the next:
One: You will be close to the Prophet Muhammad (saw)
Sponsoring orphans is a cause particularly dear to the Prophet Muhammad’s (saw) heart. He (saw) was also an orphan – his father passed away before he was even born, and his mother passed away when he was a young child.
The Prophet (saw) said, ‘The one who cares for an orphan and myself will be together in Paradise like this’, and he (saw) held his two fingers together to illustrate. [Bukhari]
SubhanAllah, to be close to the Prophet (saw) you don’t have to be one of the Sahabah (Companions), stand in prayer all night or give away all your wealth. You only have to sponsor one orphan to attain this incrdedibly high status.
Two: You will have ‘the best house’
The Messenger of Allah (saw) said, ‘The best house among the Muslims is the house in which orphans are well-treated. The worst house among the Muslims is the house in which orphans are ill-treated’. [Bukhari]
