Hazrat Ibn Abi Husain narrates that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Do not sever ties with those with whom your father maintained ties of kinship, for this will extinguish your light, because your relative is your father's relative."

Hazrat Awn bin Abdullah narrates that Hazrat Abdullah bin Masood (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Maintain ties of kinship with those with whom your father maintained ties of kinship, because maintaining ties of kinship with the deceased in the grave is that you maintain ties with those with whom he used to maintain ties.

Hazrat Bilal narrates that his father, Hazrat Abu Burdah, said: Indeed, a man's maintaining ties of kinship with his father is that he maintains ties with his father's brothers, with whom his father himself maintained ties. Hazrat Hammad says: I think this is narrated from Hazrat Abu Musa, and Hazrat Hammad was asked whether Bilal bin Abu Burdah is meant. He replied: Yes.

28053 - Hammad said: I think it is from Abu Musa. It was said to Hammad: Bilal ibn Abi Burdah? He said: Yes (1).

Hazrat Hisham states that his father, Hazrat Urwah, said: It is written in the Torah that you should love your beloved and the beloved of your father.
