I was reading the tafsir of Surah Muhammed and I came across this ayah...
"Would you then, if you were given authority, do mischief in the land, and sever your ties of kinship?"
And the hadith which was used to illustrate the importance of this blew me away....
Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet said, "Allah created His creation, and when He had finished it, the womb, got up and caught hold of Allah whereupon Allah said, "What is the matter?' On that, it said, 'I seek refuge with you from those who sever the ties of Kith and kin.' On that Allah said, 'Will you be satisfied if I bestow My favors on him who keeps your ties, and withhold My favors from him who severs your ties?' On that it said, 'Yes, O my Lord!' Then Allah said, 'That is for you.' (Sahih Bukahri, Vol 6, Hadith No. 534)
Hadith speaks for itself.
May Allah swt help us to keep our ties between our families as well as our friends, and may He never withhold His favours from us. Ameen.
"Allah! La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), Al-Hayyul-Qayyum (the Ever Living, the One Who sustains and protects all that exists).".."[Al Qur'aan 3:2]
