Hazrat Abu Hurairah
(May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah
[SAWW](PBUH) said, "Allah created all the creatures and when He finished the
task of His creation, Ar-Rahm (ties of relationship) said: `(O Allah) at this
place I seek refuge with You against severing my ties.' Allah said: `That I
treat with kindness those who treat you with kindness and sever ties with those
who sever ties with you.' It said: `I am satisfied.' Allah said: `Then this is
yours". Then Messenger of Allah
[SAWW](PBUH) said, "Recite this Ayah if you like: `Would you then, if you were
given the authority, do mischief in the land, and sever your ties of kinship?
Such are they whom Allah has cursed, so that He has made them deaf and blinded
their sight". (47:22,23).
[Al-Bukhari Book
08, Chapter 73, Hadith #
16].
The words in another
narration in Al-Bukhari are: Messenger of Allah
[SAWW](PBUH) said, "Allah (SWT) says: `He who maintains good ties with you, I
maintain good ties with him; and he who severs your ties, I sever ties with
him".
[Al-Bukhari Book 08, Chapter 73, Hadith #
17].
Lesson : as
mentioned above in Surah An- Nahl Ayat 90. and giving (help) to
kith and kin (i.e. all that Allah has ordered you to give them e.g., wealth,
visiting, looking after them, or any other kind of help, etc.) This Hadith also stresses the importance of
proper treatment with relatives for the reason that this is a special means of
attaining the nearness and Mercy of Allah. A conduct contrary to it, that is to
say, devouring the rights of relatives and continuation of estrangement with
them, is the cause of displeasure and Wrath of Allah.
