It is narrated from Sayyiduna Amir bin Rabi'ah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The Lord of Might says: 'Indeed, kinship (rahim) is a branch attached to Me (that is, a root that issues from My attribute of the Most Merciful); so whoever keeps this tie joined, I too will join him (with My special mercy and favour); and whoever cuts it off, I too will cut him off (from My grace and bounty).'"
In the chain of this report, Asim bin Ubaydullah has been judged da'if (weak) due to weakness of memory; however, the basic content of this hadith is established and reliable because it is found in other sahih and authentic hadith.
