to keep the relations of the womb, even if they cut it

Assalamu alaikum Wr Wb

Abu Dharr (r.a.) said,

“My Khalil (intimate friend, the Messenger (s.a.w)) has commanded me to do seven deeds:

He commanded me :

1) to love the poor and to be close to them

2) to look at those who are less than me and not those who are above me

3) to keep the relations of the womb, even if they cut it

4) not to ask anyone for anything

5) to say the truth even if it was bitter

6) not to fear the blame of anyone for the sake of Allah

7) to often repeat “La hawla wa la quwwata illa billah” (There is no strength or power except from Allah), for these words are from a treasure under the Throne (of Allah).”

(Imam Ahmad)
