Hadith on maintaining family ties
Submitted by user2 on Sat, 2018-10-20 07:12
Q: It is reported in Sahih Muslim #2556 that "The severer would not enter Paradise". Ibn Umar said that Sufyan (explained it as): "One who severs the tie of kinship would not enter Paradise"
I would like to know 2 things from the above hadith:
1. Does the above hadith talk about blood relationship like your parents, siblings or does it include your relatives like cousins, uncles, etc.
2. Does the above mean a person will never enter paradise if he severs the tie of kinship?
A: It is not confined to parents and siblings.
If Allah Ta'ala does not forgive one for this sin, one will have to gain purification in jahannum before one enters jannah.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
