وَ قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: "إِنَّ آكِلَ مَالِ اَلْيَتِيمِ سَيَلْحَقُهُ وَبَالُ ذَلِكَ فِي اَلدُّنْيَا وَ اَلْآخِرَةِ أَمَّا فِي اَلدُّنْيَا فَإِنَّ اَللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ يَقُولُ: وَ لْيَخْشَ اَلَّذِينَ لَوْ تَرَكُوا مِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّةً ضِعٰافاً خٰافُوا عَلَيْهِمْ فَلْيَتَّقُوا اَللّٰهَ وَ أَمَّا فِي اَلْآخِرَةِ فَإِنَّ اَللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ يَقُولُ: إِنَّ اَلَّذِينَ يَأْكُلُونَ أَمْوٰالَ اَلْيَتٰامىٰ ظُلْماً إِنَّمٰا يَأْكُلُونَ فِي بُطُونِهِمْ نٰاراً وَ سَيَصْلَوْنَ سَعِيراً "
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (a.s) said: "Indeed, the one who consumes the wealth of an orphan will face its consequences both in this world and in the Hereafter. As for this world, Allah (swt), the Almighty, says: 'And let those fear who, if they left behind weak offspring, would be afraid for them. So let them fear Allah (swt)...' (Surah An-Nisa 4:9). And as for the Hereafter, Allah (swt), the Almighty, says: 'Indeed, those who devour the property of orphans unjustly are only consuming into their bellies fire. And they will be burned in a Blaze.' (Surah An-Nisa 4:10)."
