(அநாதைகளின் பொருளுக்கு நீங்கள் மேலாளராக ஏற்பட்டால்) அவர்கள் புத்தி குறைவானவர்களாகயிருப்பின் (வாழ்க்கைக்கு) ஆதாரமாக அல்லாஹ் உங்களிடம் ஆக்கித் தந்த செல்வத்தை அவர்களிடம் ஒப்படைக்க வேண்டாம் - எனினும், அவர்களுக்கு அதிலிருந்து உணவளியுங்கள்;. ஆடையும் அளியுங்கள்;. இன்னும் அவர்களிடம் கனிவான வார்த்தைகள் கொண்டே பேசுங்கள்.

තවද නඩත්තුව පිණිස අල්ලාහ් නුඹලාට පැවැරූ නුඹලාගේ ධන සම්පත් බුද්ධි හීන වූ අයට නො දෙනු. තවද ඒවායෙන් ඔවුනට පෝෂණය ලබා දෙනු. තවද වස්ත්‍ර ද ලබා දෙනු. තවද ඔවුනට ප්‍රිය වදනින් කතා කරනු.
