Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 13471

عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ : جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّ لِي ذَوِي أَرْحَامٍ أَصِلُ وَيَقْطَعُونِي ، وَأَعْفُو وَيَظْلِمُونِي ، وَأُحْسِنُ وَيُسِيئُونَ ، أَفَأُكَافِئُهُمْ ؟ قَالَ : " [لَا] إِذًا تُتْرَكُونَ جَمِيعًا ، وَلَكِنْ خُذْ بِالْفَضْلِ وَصِلْهُمْ ، فَإِنَّهُ لَنْ يَزَالَ مَعَكَ مَلَكٌ ظَهِيرٌ مِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مَا كُنْتَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ " . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَفِيهِ حَجَّاجُ بْنُ أَرْطَاةَ وَهُوَ مُدَلِّسٌ ، وَبَقِيَّةُ رِجَالِهِ ثِقَاتٌ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) says: A man came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah, I have relatives whom I treat well, but they treat me badly; I forgive, but they wrong me; I do good, but they do evil. Shall I repay them in kind?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No. In that case you would all be abandoned. Rather, take the path of virtue and maintain ties with them. An angel from Allah Almighty will remain with you continually as a helper, as long as you keep doing so."
Ahmad recorded it; its chain contains a narrator, Hajjaj bin Artah, who is a mudallis; the rest of its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
