In the Quran

وَءَاتُوا۟ ٱلْيَتَٰمَىٰٓ أَمْوَٰلَهُمْ ۖ وَلَا تَتَبَدَّلُوا۟ ٱلْخَبِيثَ بِٱلطَّيِّبِ ۖ وَلَا تَأْكُلُوٓا۟ أَمْوَٰلَهُمْ إِلَىٰٓ أَمْوَٰلِكُمْ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ حُوبًۭا كَبِيرًۭا

اور یتیموں کا مال (جو تمہاری تحویل میں ہو) ان کے حوالے کردو اور ان کے پاکیزہ (اور عمدہ) مال کو (اپنے ناقص اور) برے مال سے نہ بدلو۔ اور نہ ان کا مال اپنے مال میں ملا کر کھاؤ۔ کہ یہ بڑا سخت گناہ ہے

Give unto orphans their wealth. Exchange not the good for the bad (in your management thereof) nor absorb their wealth into your own wealth. Lo! that would be a great sin.
