وَقَالَ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، قَالَ:

كُنْتُ عِنْدَ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ فَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ، فَسَأَلَهُ: مَنْ أَنْتَ ؟ فَمَتَّ لَهُ بِرَحِمٍ بَعِيدَةٍ، فَأَلَانَ لَهُ الْقَوْلَ، وَقَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: « اعْرِفُوا أَنْسَابَكُمْ تَصِلُوا أَرْحَامَكُمْ ; فَإِنَّهُ لَا قُرْبَ لِلرَّحِمِ إِذَا قُطِعَتْ وَإِنْ كَانَتْ قَرِيبَةً، وَلَا بُعْدَ لَهَا إِذَا وُصِلَتْ وَإِنْ كَانَتْ بَعِيدَةً

✧ I was with Ibn Abbas ؓ when a man came to him and asked him: 'Who are you?' He claimed a distant kinship to him, so he softened his speech to him and said: The Messenger of God ﷺ said: 'Know your lineages so that you may maintain your family ties; for there is no nearness for the womb when it is severed, even if it is close, and no distance for it when it is maintained, even if it is distant.'
