قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، حَدَّثَنَا صَفْوَانُ بْنُ سُلَيْمٍ، عَنْ أُمِّ سَعِيدٍ بِنْتِ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ الْجُمَحِيِّ، قَالَتْ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
مَنْ كَفَلَ يَتِيمًا لَهُ أَوْ لِغَيْرِهِ كُنْتُ أَنَا وَهُوَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ كَهَاتَيْنِ الْإِصْبَعَيْنِ الْوُسْطَى، وَالْمُسَبِّحَةِ الَّتِي تَلِيهَا

✧ Whoever sponsors an orphan, whether his own or someone else's, I and he will be in Paradise like these two fingers—the middle finger and the index finger that is next to it.
