The financial guarantee for an orphan crosses the cornerstone on which Benin orphan care institutions are based. The material factor is important in providing the basic needs of the orphan. Therefore, providing financial support to orphan care institutions is one of the most important problems facing orphan care institutions in order to achieve the goals entrusted to them. For this reason, the Islamic law attached great importance to the issue of financial sponsorship for orphans that would achieve the desired goals of orphan care institutions. The research came in three sections and a conclusion. The first topic: the call of Islamic law to treat orphans well, and Islamic law has been keen to preserve the right to sponsor orphans. And it raised the Muslims’ concern to compete in charity to the orphan, and one of the features of the Muslims’ sponsorship of the orphan child in Islamic law. The second topic: The call for financial care for the orphan in Islamic law. Islamic law called for the good treatment of orphans and the provision of financial support in order to promote the orphan so that he becomes an effective element in society, and does not become a burden on others. The third topic: the ruling on the behaviour of an orphan in his money. Accordingly, it is not fit to abide by rights and perform duties.
