ذِكْرُ وَصْفِ الْوَاصِلِ رَحِمَهُ الَّذِي يَقَعُ عَلَيْهِ اسْمُ الْوَاصِلِ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Kinship is connected to the Throne, and the one who maintains kinship is not the one who reciprocates, but the one whose ties of kinship remain even if they are severed."  

ابن حبّان:٤٤٥أَخْبَرَنَا النَّضْرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ الْعِجْلِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُوسَى عَنْ فِطْرٍ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَمْرٍو يَقُولُ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ « الرَّحِمُ مُعَلَّقَةٌ بِالْعَرْشِ وَلَيْسَ الْوَاصِلُ بِالْمُكَافِئِ وَلَكِنَّ الْوَاصِلَ الَّذِي إِذَا انْقَطَعَتْ رَحِمُهُ وَصَلَهَا»

(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.

سُفْيَانُ وَلَمْ يَرْفَعْهُ سُلَيْمَانُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَرَفَعَهُ فِطْرٌ وَالْحَسَنُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَيْسَ الْوَاصِلُ بِالْمُكَافِئِ وَلَكِنَّ الْوَاصِلَ هُوَ الَّذِي إِذَا قُطِعَتْ رَحِمُهُ وَصَلَهَا

أحمد:٦٧٨٥حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو الْفُقَيْمِيِّ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَيْسَ الْوَاصِلُ بِالْمُكَافِئِ وَلَكِنَّ الْوَاصِلَ مَنْ إِذَا قُطِعَتْ رَحِمُهُ وَصَلَهَا  

ahmad:6817Wakīʿ > Fiṭr Wayazīd b. Hārūn > Fiṭr > Mujāhid > ʿAbdullāh b. ʿAmr

[Machine] The Messenger of Allahﷺ said: "Verily, the womb (kinship) is suspended by the Throne, and the one who maintains relations is not the one who reciprocates, but rather, the one whose kinship is severed by their relative and still maintains it." He said: "The one who maintains relations."  

أحمد:٦٨١٧حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا فِطْرٌ وَيَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا فِطْرٌ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, ties of kinship are attached to the Throne, and not connected by blood relations. Rather, the one who maintains ties of kinship is the one whose ties are severed, yet they still maintain them."
