Islam appreciates and values widows especially those who keep bringing up their children, the prophet (Blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) promised such women to be with him at his degree in paradise, he (Blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: "Me and a lively woman like these two (fingers) at the Day of Judgment, he pointed by the middle finger and the forefinger, a woman who becomes a widow after her husband while she has a good position and still pretty and keeps herself bringing up her children until they grow up or die."

It is well known that among the reasons why Islam encourages polygamy is to urge men to marry the widows of martyrs who died defending Islam to help them bringing up their children and also brothers' widows to help bringing up their nephews properly.

As for orphans, God honors them so much as He made just rubbing an orphan's head softens one's heart, and supporting an orphan deserves nothing but paradise, God urges to keep the rights of orphans and He warns people from taking their wealth, He says:

"Those who unjustly eat up the property of orphans, eat up a Fire into their own bodies: They will soon be enduring a Blazing Fire!" Surat An'nessaa',Verse 10.

Islamic legislation as being more caring and concerning, put a perfect great law concerning all the orphans' issues, no other international law ever matches the Islamic law for orphans until they are mature and can keep and be responsible for their own properties.

Can you please tell me which imams route is correct as according to the relation with quran and hadith?

Truthfully, I don't understand what you mean when you say imams route, but I will try my best to answer...When an imam gives a lecture, khutba, dars, (whatever way you call it) often they need to provide proof. Some don't. It is best that the Imam, when giving a lecture, provides proof and examples using the Quran and the hadith.


How many hadith Qudsi are there?

There are approximately 300,000 Hadiths in Islam. However, most of these 80-95% are believed to be forgeries. Different Hadith collectors (like Bukhari, Al-Muslim, and others) decided whether or not they believed a hadith to be authentic or not, resulting in collections of between 20,000 to 40,000 hadiths depending on the collector.
