Many of us are very fortunate to have our parents. Losing one or both parents is traumatic for any child in any situation. In countries where war, famine or poverty are a part of everyday life, millions of children are orphaned and left to struggle for survival.

 

The prophet Mohammed (peace be upon him) lost both of his parents at a very young age and emphasized the rewards for helping orphans:

 

"Whoever caresses the head of an orphan (in affection), solely for the sake of Allah, a good deed will be written to his account for every hair over which he passed his hand, and whoever treated an orphan (boy or girl) with goodness and kindness, he and I will be close to each-other in Heaven as these two fingers"

"Whoever supports an orphan from among his own or any other family, he will be as close to me in Heaven as these fingers are close to each other."

"I, and the one who looks after an orphan, will be together like this in the next world", then he raised his index and middle fingers together."
