بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

4.6

وَ ابْتَلُوا الْیَتٰمٰى حَتّٰۤى اِذَا بَلَغُوا النِّكَاحَۚ-فَاِنْ اٰنَسْتُمْ مِّنْهُمْ رُشْدًا فَادْفَعُوْۤا اِلَیْهِمْ اَمْوَالَهُمْۚ-وَ لَا تَاْكُلُوْهَاۤ اِسْرَافًا وَّ بِدَارًا اَنْ یَّكْبَرُوْاؕ-وَ مَنْ كَانَ غَنِیًّا فَلْیَسْتَعْفِفْۚ-وَ مَنْ كَانَ فَقِیْرًا فَلْیَاْكُلْ بِالْمَعْرُوْفِؕ-فَاِذَا دَفَعْتُمْ اِلَیْهِمْ اَمْوَالَهُمْ فَاَشْهِدُوْا عَلَیْهِمْؕ-وَ كَفٰى بِاللّٰهِ حَسِیْبًا(6)

Kanz-ul-Irfan

Assess the ˹competence˺ of orphans until they reach the age of marriage, so if you see intelligence in them, then deliver their wealth to them; and do not consume it wastefully and with haste ˹fearing˺ that they will grow up.And whosoever has no need should refrain; and whosoever is in need, so he may use it appropriately. Then when you transfer their wealth to them, have witnesses present on their behalf. And Allah is sufficient for reckoning.[1]

Commentary

[1]

Here, guardians have been given special guidance that do not spend the wealth of orphans wastefully, and do not consume their wealth in haste with this fear that you will have to return their wealth to them once they come of age as this is unlawful. Moreover, if the guardian is affluent, he should avoid using the wealth of the orphan, whereas if he is needy, he should only consume an appropriate amount (the minimum requirement), as little as possible.
