Adopting a Child - A taboo?

[X2]

@KKF

exactly above reasons as given by StrangeOne. inheritence and naa-maHram issues.

however, a Muslim can pay for all the expenses towards any child’s living and educational expenses and provide him moral and social support…like we have Foster Parent concept in the west.

…can that child live with this Muslim while this Muslim is paying for the child’s living and educational expense and providing the child moral and social support?
