English Translation:

I and the one who sponsors an orphan will be in Paradise like this — and he pointed with his index finger and middle finger held together.

Explanation: Taking care of a child who has lost a parent is one of the greatest acts of kindness. The Prophet (SAW) promised that such a person will be very close to him in Paradise, like two fingers side by side.

Taking care of a child who has lost a parent is one of the greatest acts of kindness.
