Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (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 (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 and Muslim]. The words in Al-Bukhari are: Messenger of Allah (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”. Commentary: 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
