It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both), he said: Whoever fears his Lord and maintains the ties of kinship, his death will be delayed, his wealth will be increased, and his family will love him.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Miqdam bin Ma’di Karib (may Allah be pleased with him) that he heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say:“Indeed, Allah commands you emphatically regarding your mothers, then He emphatically commands you to show good conduct to your mothers, then He emphatically commands you to show good conduct to your fathers, then He emphatically commands you to show good conduct to your relatives according to their ranks.”

It is narrated from Abu Ayyub, whose name is Sulaiman, that Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) came to us on a Thursday evening and said: I say emphatically that whoever is one who severs ties of kinship should get up and leave from here. But no one got up, until he repeated this statement three times. Then a young man got up and went to one of his paternal aunts with whom he had severed relations for two years. He went to her, and she said: My nephew! What is the reason for your coming? The young man said: I heard Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) saying such and such. She said: Go and ask him why he said this. (When he asked,) he replied: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: "The deeds of the children of Adam are presented before Allah every Thursday night, and the deeds of one who severs ties of kinship are not accepted."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that whatever a man spends on himself and his family, hoping for reward, Allah Almighty grants him reward for it. And begin spending with those whose maintenance is your responsibility, then if anything remains, spend on relatives according to the closeness of their relationship, and if there is still more left, then give it to others.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abi Awfa (may Allah be pleased with him), who reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that he said: "Indeed, the mercy of Allah does not descend upon a people among whom there is one who severs the ties of kinship."

Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him), the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:“Indeed, the womb (rahm) is derived from the word Rahman (the Most Merciful). On the Day of Resurrection, it will say: O my Lord! I have been wronged, O my Lord! I have been severed, O my Lord! I, I, that is, such and such wrongs have been done to me. Then Allah Almighty will reply to it: Are you not pleased that I will cut off the one who severed you, and I will join the one who joined you?”

It is narrated from Saeed bin Sam'an, he says: I heard Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) seeking refuge from boys and fools becoming leaders. After this, Saeed bin Sam'an said that Ibn Hasna Johani informed that he asked Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him): What is its sign? He replied: Its sign is that ties of kinship will be severed, the misguided will be followed, and the one who calls towards righteousness will be disobeyed.
