It is narrated from Muhammad bin Talhah, from his father, that a man of the Arabs named Ufayr used to visit Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) often. Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) asked him: "O Ufayr, what did you hear the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say about affection?" He said: "I heard him (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'Affection is inherited, and hatred is inherited.'" This hadith is sahih al-isnad (its chain is authentic), but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it. Yusuf bin Atiyyah narrated it from Abu Bakr bin Abdullah bin Abi Mulaykah:

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abd al-Rahman bin Abi Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) met a man of the Arabs called Ufayr. Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) asked him: "What did you hear the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say about affection?" He said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'Indeed, affection and enmity are both inherited.'"

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Suraqah bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him); he said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: "Shall I not tell you about charity - or (he said) about the greatest charity? (It is) your daughter who has been returned to you (divorced or widowed) and has no one to earn for her except you." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of Muslim, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.
