English translation

1917. Ibn ‘Abbās narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: “Whoever takes in an orphan among the Muslims to raise, to feed him and give him drink, Allāh admits him into Paradise without a doubt, unless he has done a sin for which he is not forgiven.” (Da’if) [He said:] There are narrations on this topic from Murrah Al-Fihri, Abū Hurairah, Abū Umāmah, and Sahl bin Sa’d. [Abū ‘Eisā said:] Ḥanash (one of the narrators) is Ḥusain bin Qais, and he is Abū ‘Alī Ar-Raḥbī. Sulaimān At-Taimī would call him Ḥanash, and he is weak according to the people of Hadīth.

١٩١٧ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌سَعِيدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الطَّالَقَانِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌الْمُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ وَقَالَ: سَمِعْتُ ‌أَبِي يُحَدِّثُ، عَنْ ‌حَنَشٍ ، عَنْ ‌عِكْرِمَةَ ، عَنِ ‌ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ قَبَضَ يَتِيمًا بَيْنِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ إِلَى طَعَامِهِ وَشَرَابِهِ» أَدْخَلَهُ اللهُ الْجَنَّةَ الْبَتَّةَ إِلَّا أَنْ يَعْمَلَ ذَنْبًا لَا يُغْفَرُ لَهُ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ مُرَّةَ الْفِهْرِيِّ، وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، وَأَبِي أُمَامَةَ، وَسَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ. وَحَنَشٌ هُوَ: حُسَيْنُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ، وَهُوَ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرَّحَبِيُّ، وَسُلَيْمَانُ التَّيْمِيُّ يَقُولُ: حَنَشٌ وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْحَدِيثِ.

Commentary

All sins committed by a servant of Allāh may be pardonable through repentance, unless they be of the category of polytheism or sins involving violation of the rights of other men. Nevertheless, if Allāh so pleases, He can Himself compensate the aggrieved party for the injury to his rights committed by the man, and exempt the sinner from punishment. (Tuhfat Al-Ahwadhi, v.3, p.131)
