حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ زُهَيْرٍ، عَنِ الْعَلَاءِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَجُلٌ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّ لِي قَرَابَةً أَصِلُهُمْ وَيَقْطَعُونِي، وَأُحْسِنُ إِلَيْهِمْ وَيُسِيئُونَ إِلَيَّ، وَيَجْهَلُونَ عَلَيَّ، وَأَحْلُمُ عَنْهُمْ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " لَئِنْ كَانَ كَمَا تَقُولُ لَكَأَنَّمَا تُسِفُّهُمْ الْمَلَّ، وَلَا يَزَالُ مَعَكَ (٢) ظَهِيرٌ مَادُمْتَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ " (٣)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man came to the service of the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have some relatives with whom I maintain ties of kinship, but they sever relations with me. I treat them well, but they treat me badly. I am patient with them, but they behave ignorantly towards me." The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said, "If the reality is as you have described, then it is as if you are feeding them hot ashes. And as long as you remain steadfast in your conduct, there will always be a helper from Allah with you."
