وَٱبْتَلُوا۟ ٱلْيَتَٰمَىٰ حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا بَلَغُوا۟ ٱلنِّكَاحَ فَإِنْ ءَانَسْتُممِّنْهُمْ رُشْدًا فَٱدْفَعُوٓا۟ إِلَيْهِمْ أَمْوَٰلَهُمْ وَلَا تَأْكُلُوهَآ إِسْرَافًا وَبِدَارًا أَن يَكْبَرُوا۟ وَمَن كَانَ غَنِيًّا فَلْيَسْتَعْفِفْ وَمَن كَانَ فَقِيرًا فَلْيَأْكُلْ بِٱلْمَعْرُوفِ فَإِذَادَفَعْتُمْ إِلَيْهِمْ أَمْوَٰلَهُمْ فَأَشْهِدُوا۟ عَلَيْهِمْ وَكَفَىٰ بِٱللَّهِ حَسِيبًا 6
6. And test orphans till they reach the marriageable
age; then, if ye find them of sound judgment, deliver over unto them their
fortune; and devour it not by squandering and in haste lest they should grow
up. And whoso (of the guardians) is rich, let him abstain generously (from
taking of the property of orphans); and whoso is poor let him take thereof in
reason (for his guardianship). Then when ye deliver up their property unto
orphans, have (the transaction) witnessed in their presence. Allah sufficeth
as a Reckoner.

Commentary
It has been commanded in this verse, “Continue
bringing up and educating the orphans, and testing their sense and
comprehension at times till they reach the marriageable age; then, if you find
them of sound judgment, then deliver up their property and wealth to them.
However if you find that they do not have the required intellect even after
reaching the marriageable age, then according to the sect of Imam Abu
Hanifah, you would have to wait till the age of twenty five years. During
this tenure, whenever he/she seems a wise person, then deliver over the wealth
and property to them. Otherwise, hand them over their wealth and property after
reaching the age of twenty-five years in each condition.
Spending the wealth of orphans more than
necessity is forbidden. Do not finish their property in haste due to the
intimidation that after reaching the marriageable age, the orphan will get back
his/her property. The guardian should not spend the wealth of orphan for his
personal use. However, if the guardian is poor then he can take some property
propitious to his services in the reason for his guardianship.
Whenever, father of any child dies then it is
important to hand over the wealth of orphan with its written detail to a
guardian before some Muslims. And when the orphan reaches the marriageable age,
then according to that written detail his/her wealth should be gotten returned
and how much has been spent out of it, its detail should be explained to the
orphan.
Moreover,
refund of the property/wealth should be in the presence of the witnesses so
that if any dispute arises in future, then the witnesses may help in its
settlement. Allah Almighty is Protector and Reckoner of every thing, He does
not need any witness or account Himself. It has been determined for the ease of
the people only.
