عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ تَعَلَّمُوا مِنْ أَنْسَابِكُمْ مَا تَصِلُونَ بِهِ أَرْحَامَكُمْ فَإِنَّ صِلَةَ الرَّحِمِ مَحَبَّةٌ فِي الْأَهْلِ مَثْرَاةٌ فِي الْمَالِ مَنْشَأَةٌ فِي أَثَرِهِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Acquire enough knowledge of your lineage so that you may establish ties of kinship among yourselves, for maintaining ties of kinship creates love among relatives, brings blessings in wealth, and increases lifespan.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … It is only through the knowledge of lineage that one can know who is a close relative and who is a distant one.
