وَعَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: " الرَّحِمُ شِجْنَةٌ مِنَ الرَّحْمَنِ. ⦗١٣٧٨⦘ فَقَالَ اللَّهُ: مَنْ وَصَلَكِ وَصَلْتُهُ وَمَنْ قَطَعَكِ قَطَعْتُهُ ". رَوَاهُ البُخَارِيّ
Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah رضي الله عنه narrated that Allah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, 'The word (الرحيم) ar-rahim which is to join ties of kinship - is derived from (the word) (الرحمن) Ar-Rahman (The compassionate one). So, Allah said to ties of relationship, 'I shall join bonds with him who keep you intact (and respects you rights). But, I shall sever bonds with him who severs you (and I shall deprive him of My mercy).' [1]
