Abstract
  • Although a strong sunnah, or practice done, instructed, or approved of by Prophet Muhammad, Muslims grapple with ideas of adoption being prohibited and adoption fiqh details while shying from the communal obligation. Matters impeding commitment include financial burdens, protection of the child’s lineage, holding mahram status, and ensuring equal treatment with inheritance. Both the detailed rulings and lack thereof bring ease and clarity allowing for and encouraging Muslims to adopt orphans armed with knowledge of how to go about it in a manner that is validated in Islamic law that can remove some, if not all, stigmas toward adoption and, as a result, increase the rate of adoption in the Muslim community.
