أَلَمْ يَجِدْكَ يَتِيمًا فَآوَىٰ
Did He not find you an orphan and give you refuge?
Surah Ad-Duha 93:6
Caring for an orphan is not an afterthought in Islam. It runs through the Qur’an and the Sunnah as a duty and as a mercy.
وَيُطْعِمُونَ الطَّعَامَ عَلَىٰ حُبِّهِ مِسْكِينًا وَيَتِيمًا وَأَسِيرًا
And they give food, in spite of their love for it, to the poor, the orphan and the captive.
فَكُّ رَقَبَةٍ · أَوْ إِطْعَامٌ فِي يَوْمٍ ذِي مَسْغَبَةٍ · يَتِيمًا ذَا مَقْرَبَةٍ
Freeing a slave, or giving food on a day of hunger to an orphan near of kin.
يَسْأَلُونَكَ مَاذَا يُنفِقُونَ ۖ قُلْ مَا أَنفَقْتُم مِّنْ خَيْرٍ فَلِلْوَالِدَيْنِ وَالْأَقْرَبِينَ وَالْيَتَامَىٰ وَالْمَسَاكِينِ وَابْنِ السَّبِيلِ ۗ وَمَا تَفْعَلُوا مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ بِهِ عَلِيمٌ
They ask you what they should spend. Say: whatever you spend of good is for parents and kindred, and orphans and the poor and the wayfarer. And whatever you do of good, indeed Allah knows it well.
أَنَا وَكَافِلُ الْيَتِيمِ فِي الْجَنَّةِ هَكَذَا
“I and the one who cares for an orphan will be in Paradise like this,” and he ﷺ gestured with his forefinger and middle finger, holding them slightly apart.
