609 – Ahmad ibn Jamil narrated to us; Ibn al-Mubarak narrated; Yahya ibn Ayyub narrated; from ʿUbayd Allah ibn Zahr; from ʿAli ibn Yazid; from Abu Umamah, who reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Whoever passes his hand over the head of an orphan, doing so solely for Allah, will earn a good deed for every hair his hand touches. And whoever treats an orphan in his care with excellence, I and he will be in Paradise like these two.” He then brought his index and middle fingers together.
