The one who severs the ties of kinship will not enter Paradise

Explanation

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) informs that he who withholds from his relatives the rights due to them or harms them and does wrong to them is worthy of not entering Paradise.

Benefits

• Severing the ties of kinship is a major sin.
• Maintaining kinship ties is regarded as such in accordance with what is customary, differing with the different places, times, and people.
• Kinship ties are maintained by visits, charity, benevolence, visiting the sick, enjoining good and forbidding evil, and so on.
• The closer the relatives with whom ties are severed, the greater the sin.
