Hadith
Jubair bin Mut’im reported on the authority of his father:
The Prophet(ﷺ) said: Anyone who cuts off relationship from his nearest relatives will not enter Paradise.
لاَ يَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ قَاطِعُ رَحِمٍ
Abd Allah bin `Amr said :
(Sufyan said : The version of the narrator Sulaiman does not go back to The Prophet (ﷺ). Fitr and al-Hasan reported from him ) : The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said : One who compensates is not a man who unites relationship : but the man who unites relationship is the one who joins it when the relationship is cut off.
لَيْسَ الْوَاصِلُ بِالْمُكَافِئِ وَلَكِنَّ الْوَاصِلَ هُوَ الَّذِي إِذَا قُطِعَتْ رَحِمُهُ وَصَلَهَا
Narrated Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-'As:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) preached and said: Abstain from avarice, for those who had been before you were annihilated due to avarice. It (avarice) commanded them to show niggardliness; it commanded them to cut off their relationship with their nearest relatives, so they cut off. It commanded them to show profligacy, so they showed it.
إِيَّاكُمْ وَالشُّحَّ فَإِنَّمَا هَلَكَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ بِالشُّحِّ أَمَرَهُمْ بِالْبُخْلِ فَبَخَلُوا وَأَمَرَهُمْ بِالْقَطِيعَةِ فَقَطَعُوا وَأَمَرَهُمْ بِالْفُجُورِ فَفَجَرُوا
Asma, daughter of Abu Bakr, said :
I said : Messenger of Allah(ﷺ), I have nothing of my own except what al-Zubair (her husband) brings to me in his house: should I spend out of it? He said : Give and do not hoard so your sustenance will be hoarded.
أَعْطِي وَلاَ تُوكِي فَيُوكِيَ عَلَيْكِ
Abu Mulaykah reported:
Aisha counted a number of indigents. AbuDawud said: The other version has: She counted a number of sadaqahs. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Give and do not calculate, so calculation will be made against you.
أَعْطِي وَلاَ تُحْصِي فَيُحْصِيَ عَلَيْكِ
