Sayyiduna Abu-Ayyub al-Ansari (radi Allahu anhu) reported that a man said: “O Allah’s Apostle (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam)! Inform me of a deed, which will make me enter Paradise.” The people said: “What is the matter with him? What is the matter with him?” Allah’s Apostle (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) said: “He has something to ask.” The Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) said to him: “In order to enter Paradise you should worship Allah and join none in worship with Him; you should make prayers perfectly, give obligatory charity and keep good relations with your kith and kin”. (Bukhari) 

Sayyiduna Jubair Bin Mut’im (radi Allahu anhu) reported that he heard Allah’s Apostle (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) saying: “The person who severs the bond of kinship will not enter Paradise.” (Bukhari) 

Sayyiduna Abu Hurayra (radi Allahu anhu) reported that he heard Sayyiduna Rasoolullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) saying: “Whoever is pleased that he be granted more wealth and that his lease of life be prolonged then he should keep good relations with his kith and kin”. (Bukhari) 

Sayyiduna Abu Hurayra (radi Allahu anhu) reported that the Messenger of Allah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) said: “Allah created the creations, and when He finished from His creations, Ar-Rahm (womb) said, ‘O Allah! At this place I seek refuge with you from all those who sever me (i.e. 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 Apostle (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) added, ‘Read (in the Quraan) 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) (Bukhari) 

Sayyiduna Abu Hurayra (radi Allahu anhu) reported that Sayyiduna Rasoolullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) kissed Sayyiduna Hasan Bin Ali (radi Allahu anhu) while Sayyiduna al-Aqra’ Bin Habis at-Tamimi (radi Allahu anhu) was sitting beside him. Sayyiduna Al-Aqra’ (radi Allahu anhu) said: “I have ten children and I have never kissed anyone of them.” Allah’s Apostle (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) cast a look at him and said: “Whoever is not merciful to others will not be treated mercifully”.
