[Machine] I came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, my father used to maintain ties of kinship, entertain guests, and fulfill obligations. He passed away before embracing Islam." He replied, "Did he not find Islam?" I said, "No." The Prophet ﷺ then said, "It will be upon you to continue these good practices. They will never be disgraced or deprived."
أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أَبِي كَانَ يَصِلُ الرَّحِمَ وَيَقْرِي الضَّيْفَ ويَفِي بِالذِّمَّةِ قَالَ «وَلَمْ يُدْرِكِ الْإِسْلَامَ؟» قَالَ لَا فَلَمَّا وَلَّيْتُ قَالَ «عَلَيَّ بِالشَّيْخِ» قَالَ «يَكُونُ ذَلِكَ فِي عَقِبِكَ فَلَنْ يَذِلُّوا أَبَدًا وَلَنْ يَفْقُرُوا أَبَدًا»
