YOGYAKARTA - In Islamic teachings, everyone who glorifies orphans will get a large variety of virtues and rewards. Definition of orphans itself refers to someone who has been left dead by his father. Quoted from the book Mari Loving Orphans by Muhsin M K, there are various ways to glorify orphans. In addition, you can also find verses and hadiths about orphans. One way to glorify orphans is to raise the dignity of their lives.

This is in accordance with the word of Allah SWT in surah An Nisa paragraph 8:

Let's talk about it. Let's talk about it, let's talk about it.

Meaning: "And if some relatives, orphans and the poor are present during the distribution, then give them from the property (only) and say to them good words."

In addition to the Qur'an, some hadiths are also explained about orphans. As quoted from the book 1100 Hadith Elected by Muhammad Faiz Almath.

People who care for orphans will certainly have their position in heaven near the Prophet Muhammad SAW. This closeness is even likened to the index finger and middle finger.

"That me and the people who properly care for orphans will be in heaven, like the closeness of the index finger with the middle finger, then the Prophet raised his hand and showed his index finger and middle finger, then he stretched." (HR Bukhari)

Rasulullah SAW said abda,

"Whoever includes an orphan between two Muslim parents, in eating and drinking, so that it is sufficient, he will definitely go to heaven." (HR Thabrani)

Prophet Muhammad SAW said in a hadith,

"Whoever becomes the guardian of the orphans' property, let's trade it (traded) and don't let the property be allowed to follow because it is eaten by sodaqoh (zaf)." (HR Baihaqi)

In the hadith narrated by Abu Hanifah, Rasulullah SAW said:

"The property of orphans was not affected by zakat until he took the billboards." (HR Abu Hanifah)

Rasulullah SAW said that Allah SWT left it behind,

"For those who break up with rights, Allah will not torture on the Day of Resurrection people who love orphans, are gentle in talks with them, love their faith and weaknesses." (HR Thabrani)

Providing compensation to orphans is also a way to get appreciation from Allah in the form of the title "Abror." The person who is given the title Abror is a pious and obedient person to Allah SWT. This is a special tribute and respect for those who help orphans.

Helping orphans is also a form of worship that will open aid and help from Allah SWT. Allah always listens to prayers and requests of people who do good to orphans.
