KINDNESS TOWARDS KINSFOLK
1:38:4 2023-07-18 549

The Qur'an says:

Treat the Kinsfolk with kindness. (Q16)

After the parents, Qur'an has mentioned the kinsfolk as they deserve our kindness the most. Kinsfolk: are related to us through our parents. Anybody close to parents merits our kindness. At one place, the Qur'an mentions - the attributes of godly people in these words:

Those who join together those things which Allah had commanded to be joined, hold their Lord in awe, and fear the terrible reckoning. Al Ra'd: 21 (Q17)

Maintenance of ties with one's kinsfolk makes social life pleasant. Where this is absent, social discord sets in. The prophet Mohammad (PBUH) said:

To give propitiatory offerings to, any indigent person (who is not related) is mere offering but the same given to a relative is an offering as well as a mark of maintaining tie with one's relation.

It means spending on relations is doubly rewarded. It is a fact that man feels a natural attachment with his kinsfolk but it is also a fact that these relationships are very fragile. Simple incidents - snap these relations. Traditions say that these relations be made to maintain these relations.

A person told the Prophet that he had some relatives. He tried to maintain his ties with them but they tried to breach them. He behaved with kindness but they treated him with harshness. He forgave them but they dealt with him in ignorance. After listening to this, the Prophet said if the matter was so you filled their mouth with hot ash. As long as you deal so, Allah's assistance will be with you.
