الفصل الثالث 3371 - عن ابن عباس - رضي الله عنهما - قال: لما نزل قوله تعالى: ولا تقربوا مال اليتيم إلا بالتي هي احسن  ، وقوله تعالى: إن الذين ياكلون اموال اليتامى ظلما الآية انطلق من كان عنده يتيم فعزل طعامه وشرابه من شرابه، فإذا فضل من طعام اليتيم وشرابه شيء حبس له حتى ياكله او يفسد، فاشتد ذلك عليهم، فذكروا ذلك لرسول الله - صلى الله عليه وسلم - فانزل الله تعالى: ويسالونك عن اليتامى قل إصلاح لهم خير وإن تخالطوهم فإخوانكم فخلطوا طعامهم بطعامهم، وشرابهم بشرابهم. رواه ابو داود، والنسائي.
Ibn ‘Abbas said:When the words of God most high came down,“Do not come near an orphan’s property except to improve it,”(Al-Qur’an 6:152) and“Those who devour unjustly the property of orphans. . .”(Al-Qur’an 4:10) those who were in charge of an orphan went and separated their food and drink from his, and if any of the orphan’s food or drink was left over they kept it for him until he ate it or it went bad. Finding that a burden, they mentioned the matter to God’s Messenger, and God most high sent down,“And they ask you about orphans. Say, to set things right for them is good, and if you intermix with them they are your brethren”(Al-Qur’an 2:220). They then mixed their food and their drink with theirs. Abu Dawud and Nasa'i transmitted it.
