Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ أَرْطَأَةَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّ لِي ذَوِي أَرْحَامٍ، أَصِلُ وَيَقْطَعُونِي، وَأَعْفُو وَيَظْلِمُونَ (١) ، وَأُحْسِنُ وَيُسِيئُونَ، أَفَأُكَافِئُهُمْ؟ قَالَ: " لَا، إِذًا تُتْرَكُونَ جَمِيعًا، وَلَكِنْ خُذْ بِالْفَضْلِ وَصِلْهُمْ، فَإِنَّهُ لَنْ يَزَالَ مَعَكَ ظَهِيرٌ مِنَ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مَا كُنْتَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ " (٢)، ،

English translation

It is narrated from Ibn Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man came to the service of the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, "O Messenger of Allah! I have some relatives; I maintain ties with them, but they sever relations with me. I forgive them, but they wrong me. I treat them well, but they treat me badly. Can I also repay them in kind?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "No, otherwise you will all be left alone. You should choose the virtuous side and maintain ties of kinship with them, and as long as you continue to do so, a constant helper from Allah will remain with you."
