Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner asks: Does the care of a foundling fall under the care of an orphan, such that one receives the reward for caring for an orphan?
Answer:
There is a reward in it, but it is not the same as the care of an orphan. There is a reward in it because it is providing for someone in need; it is spending on someone in need, so there is a reward in it.
