45. Enjoining Good Conduct and the Ties of Kinship
٤٥۔ كتاب البر والصلة والآداب
Neither nurse mutual hatred, nor jealousy, nor enmity, and become as fellow brothers and servants of Allah. It is not lawful for a Muslim that he should keep his relations estranged with his brother beyond three days.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لاَ تَبَاغَضُوا وَلاَ تَحَاسَدُوا وَلاَ تَدَابَرُوا وَكُونُوا عِبَادَ اللَّهِ إِخْوَانًا وَلاَ يَحِلُّ لِمُسْلِمٍ أَنْ يَهْجُرَ أَخَاهُ فَوْقَ ثَلاَثٍ
Anas b. Malik reported Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying like this. This hadith has been narrated through another chain of transmitters.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ ح وَحَدَّثَنِيهِ حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ مَالِكٍ
عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ وَزَادَ ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ وَلاَ تَقَاطَعُوا
" Neither nurse grudge nor sever (the ties of kinship), nor nurse enmity."
عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ أَمَّا رِوَايَةُ يَزِيدَ عَنْهُ فَكَرِوَايَةِ سُفْيَانَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ يَذْكُرُ الْخِصَالَ الأَرْبَعَةَ جَمِيعًا وَأَمَّا حَدِيثُ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ وَلاَ تَحَاسَدُوا وَلاَ تَقَاطَعُوا وَلاَ تَدَابَرُوا
Nurse no grudge, nurse no aversion and do not sever ties of kinship and live like fellow-brothers as servants of Allah. This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Shu'ba with the same chain of transmitters but with this addition:" As Allah has commanded you."
حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ مِثْلَهُ وَزَادَ كَمَا أَمَرَكُمُ اللَّهُ
