From the Musnad of Abd al-Rahman bin Awf
Musnad Abi Ya'la 840 — Abu al-Raddad fell ill, and Sayyiduna Abd
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، أَنَّ أَبَا الرَّدَّادِ اشْتَكَى ، فَعَادَهُ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ ، فَقَالَ : خَيْرُهُمْ وَأَوْصَلُهُمْ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ . فَقَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ : إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ : قَالَ اللهُ : أَنَا اللهُ ، وَأَنَا الرَّحْمَنُ ، وَهِيَ الرَّحِمُ ، خَلَقْتُ الرَّحِمَ وَاشْتَقَقْتُ لَهَا مِنِ اسْمِي ، فَمَنْ وَصَلَهَا وَصَلْتُهُ ، وَمَنْ قَطَعَهَا قَطَعْتُهُ . أَوْ : بَتَتُّهُ .
It is narrated from Abu Salamah (may Allah have mercy on him) that Abu al-Raddad fell ill, and Sayyiduna Abd al-Rahman bin Awf (may Allah be pleased with him) visited him. Abu al-Raddad said: "The best of them (the relatives) and the most diligent of them in maintaining the ties of kinship is Abu Muhammad (Abd al-Rahman bin Awf)." Sayyiduna Abd al-Rahman (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Allah Almighty says: I am Allah, I am al-Rahman, and this is the rahim (the tie of kinship). I created the rahim and derived its name from My name. So whoever joins it, I will join him (to Myself), and whoever cuts it, I will cut him off." Or he said: "I will cut him off completely."
