Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books The Islamic Family Structure 28 Observing the Relations of the Womb Those who join together those things which God hath commanded to be joined.[Holy Quran: Ra'd: 13:21] The Quran and Visiting Relatives Visiting relatives is one of the very good deeds that the Prophet, and the Imams have much insisted on.

Mulla Husayn Fayz Persons:Mulla Husayn Fayz" , who was a great philosopher, mystic and scholar spent his life with the Glorious Quran and Prophetic traditions. He considered visiting the relatives to include going to see them, and helping the relatives with their finances or business, or helping young couples to marry. This meaning can be understood from the Quranic verses and traditions, too. The Prophet and the Imams did exactly these things when they visited their relatives, too.

This act is greatly stressed in the Quran. It is done by the wise, and cutting off relations with the relatives is considered to be an act of corruption. The Quran has instructed us to fear God when interacting with our relatives, and God has mentioned relatives just after Himself Reverence God, through Whom ye demand your mutual (rights), and (reverence) the wombs (that bore you): [Holy Quran: Nisaa: 4:1] The wise are considered to have some traits as mentioned in the Holy Chapter Ra'd.

The benefits gained in the Hereafter are being greeted and welcomed by angels. Those who join together those things which God hath commanded to be joined.[Holy Quran: Ra'd: 13:21] We read in the Chapter Baqara the following regarding cutting off of relations: And who sunder what God has ordered to be joined, and do mischief on earth: These cause loss (only) to themselves.[Holy Quran: Baqara: 2:27] Yes, cutting off relations is a cause for a great loss.

There is another alarming verse in the chapter Ra'd regarding this issue: And cut asunder those things which God has commanded to be joined, and work mischief in the land;-- on them is the Curse; for them is the terrible Home! [Holy Quran: Ra'd: 13:25] We read in chapter Muhammad: Then, is it to be expected of you, if ye were put in authority, that ye will do mischief in the land, and break your ties of kith and kin?

[Holy Quran: Muhammad: 47:22] So we see that visiting relatives is so important that it yields prosperity and the greeting and welcoming of man by angels in the Hereafter. And the cutting off of relations with relatives will result in damnation, a bad ending and not being saved.
