Adoption in muslim law

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 07 August 2011 This query is : Resolved 
Dear All,

Is there any provision of adoption of child in muslim law or not? if yes than what is the procedure of adoption in muslims.
Khaleel Ahmed Mohammed (Expert) 07 August 2011
Adoption is not permitted in Islam.
prabhakar singh (Expert) 07 August 2011
Expert Khaleel Ahmed is right but still a muslim can adopt.
Kirti Kar Tripathi (Expert) 07 August 2011
Agree with Mr. Khaleel, adoption is not permissible in muslim law. I fail understand, when it is impermissible, how a muslim can adopt. Any adoption contrary to muslim law, is illegal.
Kirti Kar Tripathi (Expert) 07 August 2011
By acknowledgement one can be treated as child of a person. Am I correct, Mr.Khaleel ?

Respected All,

It is clear that there is no provision of adoption in muslim law. But if a person want to do so how it is possible in the eye of law? Actually a muslim lady aged about 70 year wants to adopt a child son of her daughter. any legal option is there? please suggest me.
Khaleel Ahmed Mohammed (Expert) 08 August 2011
Being a Muslim there is no option left for her to adopt any body legally. But she can undertake him as guardian appointed by the consent of the parents of child.
