Chapter 40: Kind Treatment Towards Parents And Establishment Of The Ties Of Blood Relationship
Hadîth 319
Anas (RA) reported: Messenger of Allâh (SAW) said, “He who desire ample provisions and his life be prolonged, should maintain good ties with his blood relations.”
[Al-Bukhârî and Muslim]
Commentary by:
Hafiz Salahuddin Yusuf
One who is benevolent and compassionate towards one’s own relatives, stands to gain at least two difinite advantages in this world besides the reward in the next. These two advantages are the increase in his subsistence and longevity of life.
Increase in subsistence means that Almoghty Allâh will increase the quantity of his worldly goods or his means of subsistence will be blessed by Him. Similar is the case of longevity of life. The life of such person is either actually increased (in terms of years) or his life is graced with the Blessings of Allâh. Both interpretations are correct.
