In Islam, feeding the poor is one of the most beloved acts of worship—but feeding orphans holds a special place in the sight of Allah ﷻ. Orphans are among the most vulnerable in society, and Islam commands us to honor, protect, and care for them with kindness, mercy, and love.
At LoveHopeRelief, we are committed to fulfilling this sacred duty by feeding and supporting orphans across Uganda. Your support helps us turn this divine command into daily reality—and brings you immense reward in both worlds.
The Virtue of Caring for Orphans in Islam
Orphans (Yatama) are mentioned over 20 times in the Qur’an, a sign of their importance. Islam places immense emphasis on safeguarding their dignity and well-being.
📖 “They ask you, [O Muhammad], what they should spend. Say, ‘Whatever you spend of good is [to be] for parents and relatives and orphans and the needy and the traveler.’”
— Surah Al-Baqarah (2:215)
The act of feeding an orphan is not just charity—it is a path to Paradise and the company of the Prophet ﷺ.
📜 The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said:
“I and the one who cares for an orphan will be together in Paradise like this,” and he held his two fingers close together.
— (Sahih al-Bukhari, 5304)
Feeding an Orphan: A Source of Barakah and Forgiveness
When you feed an orphan, you are not just satisfying their hunger—you are giving them love, safety, and a chance at a better future. Allah has promised great reward for such acts of mercy.
📖 “And they give food in spite of love for it to the needy, the orphan, and the captive, [saying], ‘We feed you only for the sake of Allah. We desire neither reward nor thanks from you.’”
— Surah Al-Insan (76:8-9)
This verse captures the sincerity that Islam encourages in charity. Feeding the orphan purely for the sake of Allah earns immense spiritual rewards and brings barakah (blessing) into our lives.
📜 The Prophet ﷺ also said:
“The best house among the Muslims is the house in which an orphan is well-treated, and the worst house is the one in which an orphan is badly treated.”
— (Sunan Ibn Majah, 3679)
