Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 1215 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: The one
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ ، قَالَ : نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ صُدْرَانَ قَالَ : نَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ قَالَ : نَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ . عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- : السَّاعِي عَلَى الْأَرْمَلَةِ وَالْمِسْكِينِ كَالْمُجَاهِدِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ ، أَوْ كَالْقَائِمِ لَيْلَهُ ، الصَّائِمِ نَهَارَهُ . وَكَافِلُ الْيَتِيمِ - لَهُ أَوْ لِغَيْرِهِ - ، إِذَا اتَّقَى اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ، أَنَا وَهُوَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ كَهَاتَيْنِ I " يَعْنِي : إِصْبَعَيْهِ السَّبَّابَةَ وَالْوُسْطَى . I " لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ إِلَّا الْفَضْلُ I " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The one who serves the widow and the poor person and strives to meet their needs is like the one who strives in jihad in the path of Allah, or like the one who stands the whole night in worship and fasts by day.
And the one who looks after an orphan, whether the orphan is his own (relative) or someone else's, provided that he fears Allah, the Mighty and Majestic: he and I will be in Paradise like these two," and he (peace and blessings be upon him) explained by pointing to his index finger and middle finger.
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Isma'il (may Allah have mercy on him) except al-Fadl (may Allah have mercy on him)."
