Health care is one of the most important aspects that a person needs in this universe. The problem of health care for orphans arose to preserve their health and protect them through appropriate vaccination and protection for them and to achieve full health care for orphans, which is provided to them through orphan institutions of all kinds, whether they are civil or governmental, local or international, and the research included three sections and a conclusion. The first topic: the interest of Islamic law in health care for orphans. Islam, as is well known, paid great attention to the orphan, and gave it special care. Taking into account his difficult circumstances by losing his father, because by losing his father, he will suffer some humiliation and break. Therefore, God Almighty urged the able Muslims from among the people of righteousness and charity to sponsor the orphan, be kind to him and be sympathetic to him, and made their sponsorship of the orphan one of the medicines that treat the diseases of the human soul. The second topic: Prevention is better than cure, health is among the blessings that God Almighty bestowed upon His servants; Because health enables a person to perform the acts of worship and obedience that God Almighty has commanded those in charge in the correct manner. The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, referred to the importance of the blessing of health and wellness in more than one hadith. The third topic: the order to treat diseases and maintain the health of the orphan.
