بِي أُمَامَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «مَنْ مَسَحَ رَأْسَ يَتِيمٍ لَمْ يمسحه إلالله كَانَ لَهُ بِكُلِّ شَعْرَةٍ تَمُرُّ عَلَيْهَا يَدُهُ حَسَنَاتٌ وَمَنْ أَحْسَنَ إِلَى يَتِيمَةٍ أَوْ يَتِيمٍ عِنْدَهُ كُنْتُ أَنَا وَهُوَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ كَهَاتَيْنِ» وَقرن بِي أُصْبُعَيْهِ. رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ وَالتِّرْمِذِيُّ وَقَالَ: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ
Abu Umamah Narrated from:
Allah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "He who strokes an orphan's head only for Allah's sake will get blessing for every hair over which his hand passes (as many pieties will be recorded for him). And, he who treats well an orphan girl or boy who is under his care (whether his relative or stranger) will be with me in paradise like this," and he put two of his fingers (the middle and index) together.
