He believes in Allah (swt) and the message, but there is weakness and doubt in his behavior, that is because he is far from the method and the understanding of the requital in the hereafter, if he was to recall the scenes of the punishment, he would not have dared to disobey the method or commit any sin. It was narrated by Al-Harith Ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that he passed by the Prophet (saws) so he asked him:

“How are you this morning O’Harithah?, He said: I woke up a true believer, The Prophet said: “look at what you are saying, each truth has a  reality, so what is the reality of your belief? He said: My self abstained from life, as if I am looking at the throne of my Lord prominent, and as if I am looking at the people of Paradise visiting their others, and as if I am looking at the people the Hell shouting in it, the Prophet said: “O’ Harithah, you comprehended, so keep on” repeated it thrice”[1]

Here we notice that the companion Al-Harithath (may Allah be pleased with him) described his faith as true, whereas this issue is very big, so that, the Prophet (saws) wanted to point out to the seriousness of the answer.

However, Allah (swt) in this verse indicated that who denies the Recompense, could be a believer, who believes in the essences of religion, but he does not fulfill the faith requirements doing such as of driving away the orphan.

يَدُعُّ  (drives away): This word shows how this behavior is ugly  and rude, to drive the orphan violently.

This person did not answer back the orphan with a word, rather, with a merciless act. The orphan is a weak child, does not have support or power, so driving away him is an immoral tough matter. The orphan needs pity, courtesy and support. Thus, when we care about the orphan, then we are doing a mission that Allah (swt) has assigned to us towards this weak human being.

Allah (swt) is Able to support and provide him with reasons of living better than what we have, but Allah (swt) wants to see from His Servants the evidences of their sympathy and co-operation. Allah (swt) wants as well to test them by their actions toward each other. Allah (swt) wants to see the reaction of His strong creatures towards the weak ones. As such, Allah (swt) named spending in His path as a loan to Him (swt):

  ﴾مَّن ذَا الَّذِي يُقْرِضُ اللَّهَ قَرْضًا حَسَنًا فَيُضَاعِفَهُ لَهُ أَضْعَافًا كَثِيرَةً ۚ وَاللَّهُ يَقْبِضُ وَيَبْسُطُ وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ﴿

 (Who is it that would loan Allah a goodly loan so He may multiply it for him many times over? And it is Allah who withholds and grants abundance, and to Him you will be returned.) (Al-Baqara: 245)

When you give the poor or the orphan it is as if you give Allah (swt) a loan. When Allah (swt) clarifies to us this divine equation He is as if saying: If you take care of the orphan, the weak, and the needy and help them in doing their deeds, I will help you with your children and I will help your children as well and will guarantee that someone will support them after you:

   ﴾وَلْيَخْشَ الَّذِينَ لَوْ تَرَكُوا مِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّةً ضِعَافًا خَافُوا عَلَيْهِمْ فَلْيَتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَلْيَقُولُوا قَوْلًا سَدِيدًا﴿

 (And let those [executors and guardians] fear [injustice] as if they [themselves] had left weak offspring behind and feared for them. So let them fear Allah and speak words of appropriate justice.)
(An-Nisaa: 9)

So, if you, O’ human, wants to guarantee your children’s life after you, do not think this is done by building a house or a palace or by depositing money in a bank or in insurance companies, rather this is done by depositing in the divine insurance company because your guarantee will be in Allah’s (swt) hands, He Who is:

   ﴾فَاللَّهُ خَيْرٌ حَافِظًا ۖ وَهُوَ أَرْحَمُ الرَّاحِمِينَ ﴿

 (He is the most merciful of the merciful.) (Yussuf: 64)

In Surah Al-Kahf Allah (swt) presents to us a real example of this divine insurance concerning the children, through the story of Sayyidna Musa (pbuh) with the righteous servant:

   ﴾وَأَمَّا الْجِدَارُ فَكَانَ لِغُلَامَيْنِ يَتِيمَيْنِ فِي الْمَدِينَةِ وَكَانَ تَحْتَهُ كَنزٌ لَّهُمَا وَكَانَ أَبُوهُمَا صَالِحًا فَأَرَادَ رَبُّكَ أَن يَبْلُغَا أَشُدَّهُمَا وَيَسْتَخْرِجَا كَنزَهُمَا رَحْمَةً مِّن رَّبِّكَ﴿

 (And as for the wall, it belonged to two orphan boys in the city, and there was beneath it a treasure for them, and their father had been righteous. So your Lord intended that they reach maturity and extract their treasure, as a mercy from your Lord.) (Al-Kahf: 82)

Allah (swt) utilized someone who kept safe the treasure of the two orphans because their father was a righteous man, thereof, the righteous of the father brings the benefits to his children.

Another aspect of oppressing the orphans and the needy in the following verse:
