Sponsoring an orphan is one of the greatest deeds that Allah (SWT) and His messenger emphasized. Immense rewards have been guaranteed for those who sponsor orphan children in need.
Sahl ibn Sa’d reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Myself and the caretaker of an orphan will be in Paradise like this,” and he held his two fingers together. (Sahih al-Bukhari)
200 Million Orphan Children in the world
According to UNICEF, there are approximately 140 million orphans in the world who lost one or both parents and who are looking for someone to care for them. Those orphans deserve to live an honorable and healthy life away from hunger and malnutrition.
