HADEES OF THE HOLY PROPHET (S.A.W.S.) - On Orphans

Rasool Allah (saww) said: 

He is orphan who is unable to receive his parents’ care and is therefore not brought up by them. However, he is not that miserable as compared with the one who is unable to reach Imam (asws) of his time and is unable to receive and comprehend his Imam (asws)’s blessings and guidance. He does not know what are his Imam (asws)’s verdicts on those religious affairs faced by him. He is the Orphan of Alay-Mohammed (asws). Be aware! He should be looked after by those who have knowledge about our traditions. Whoever would teach him our (asws) attributes, our (asws) Marafat (recognition) and our (asws) traditions will be with us in the hereafter. (Ahtijab, pp. 2 (Haqaiq-ul-wasiat, pp. 32))
