Hadith 37

37/52 (صحيح) عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: "أَتَى رَجُلٌ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! إِنَّ لِي قَرَابَةً أَصِلُهُمْ وَيَقْطَعُونَ، وَأُحْسِنُ إِلَيْهِمْ وَيُسِيئُونَ إِلَيَّ، وَيَجْهَلُونَ عَلَيَّ وَأَحْلُمُ عَنْهُمْ. قَالَ: "لَئِنْ كَانَ كَمَا تَقُولُ كَأَنَّمَا تُسِفُّهُمُ (1) الْمَلَّ، وَلَا يَزَالُ مَعَكَ مِنَ اللَّهِ ظَهِيرٌ عَلَيْهِمْ مَا دُمْتَ على ذلك".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that he said: A man came to the service of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and said: O Messenger of Allah! I have some relatives. I maintain ties with them, but they sever relations with me. I treat them well, but they treat me badly. They behave ignorantly (quarrel) with me, and I deal with them with patience and forbearance. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "If it is as you say, then it is as if you are putting hot ashes into their mouths. And as long as you remain in this state, a helper from Allah against them will always be with you."
