Fruits of Honoring One’s Family Ties
Verily, maintaining good relations with one’s family and relatives makes one’s house a prosperous one and increases one in wealth and property. Ibn Abbas (May Allah be pleased with him) narrated from the Prophet (Peace and blessings be upon him) that he said: “Verily, Allah may make the houses of such and such people prosperous and increase their wealth for them whereas He has never looked at them since He created them out of hate. It was said: Oh Messenger of Allah! How is that? He said: Because they maintain good relations with their families.”
