Orphan Sponsorship

’Blessed is the wealth of the Muslim, from which he gives to the poor, the orphan and the wayfarer’. [Muslim]
According to Islam, orphans are those children who are left with no protection because their fathers have passed away. Many orphans have no source of income and/or a guardian to take care of them. This is where Muslims as a community have to step in and aid the orphans.
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 incredibly high status.
