Sahih al-Bukhari 5987 (Book 78, Hadith 18) #5747
Keeping Good Relations With Family

SUMMARY: Allah has promised to keep good relations with those who keep good relations with their family and sever the relation with those who sever the ties of kinship.

Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet ﷺ said, "Allah created the creations, and when He finished from His creations, Ar-Rahm ie, womb said, "(O Allah) at this place I seek refuge with You from all those who sever me (ie sever the ties of Kith and kin). Allah said, 'Yes, won't you be pleased that I will keep good relations with the one who will keep good relations with you, and I will sever the relation with the one who will sever the relations with you'. It said, 'Yes, O my Lord'. Allah said, 'Then that is for you ' " Allah's Messenger ﷺ added".Read (in the Qur'an) if you wish, the Statement of Allah: 'Would you then, if you were given the authority, do mischief in the land and sever your ties of kinship?' (47:22)
حَدَّثَنِي بِشْرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ أَبِي مُزَرِّدٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَمِّي، سَعِيدَ بْنَ يَسَارٍ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ ‏"‏ إِنَّ اللَّهَ خَلَقَ الْخَلْقَ حَتَّى إِذَا فَرَغَ مِنْ خَلْقِهِ، قَالَتِ الرَّحِمُ هَذَا مَقَامُ الْعَائِذِ بِكَ مِنَ الْقَطِيعَةِ‏.‏ قَالَ نَعَمْ أَمَا تَرْضَيْنَ أَنْ أَصِلَ مَنْ وَصَلَكِ‏.‏ وَأَقْطَعَ مَنْ قَطَعَكِ‏.‏ قَالَتْ بَلَى يَا رَبِّ‏.‏ قَالَ فَهْوَ لَكِ ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ‏"‏ فَاقْرَءُوا إِنْ شِئْتُمْ ‏{‏فَهَلْ عَسَيْتُمْ إِنْ تَوَلَّيْتُمْ أَنْ تُفْسِدُوا فِي الأَرْضِ وَتُقَطِّعُوا أَرْحَامَكُمْ‏}‏‏"‏‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about keeping good relations with family. Allah has promised to reward those who maintain strong relationships with their family members by keeping them close. He will also punish those who break these ties by cutting them off from His mercy. The Qur'anic verse mentioned in this hadith further emphasizes this point as it asks if people would do mischief in the land if they were given authority to do so. This means that even if one is given power or authority over others, they should not use it to harm or break apart families but instead use it for good deeds and maintaining strong relationships between relatives.

The values taught in this hadith are loyalty towards one's family members, kindness towards relatives, respect for elders and maintaining peace within a household or community. It also teaches us that we should not misuse our power or authority over others but instead use it for doing good deeds such as helping out our families when needed or providing support when necessary.
