ANSWER THE FOLLOWING 

1. What has Imam Al Shafe’i told about modest people?

Modest people help others as they know that man’s fortune comes and goes. 

The best among people are those through whose hands the needs of others are fulfilled. 

Never refuse to do someone a favour if you possible, because your fortune will one day change. 

And thank Allah because he made others need your help rather than you in need of their help.

A: It means Establishing a strongly connected society based on love and cooperation. 

3. Describe the significance of social cohesion in Islam. 

A: Social cohesion is essential for ensuring the strength, security and stability of society. It is one of the characteristics of Islamic society; the Prophet (S.A) said: 

“The believers in their mutual kindness, compassion and sympathy are just like one body; when one of the limbs suffers, the whole body 

responds to it with wakefulness and fever.” [Narrated by Al-Bukhari and Muslim] 

4. What are the fields of social cohesion? 

A: Fields of social cohesion are: 

a) Family cohesion 

b) Cohesion among members of society 

c) Cohesion between the ruler and people 

5. How can we be compassionate among family members? 

A: Islam paid big attention to the family and called to strengthening bonds among its members so that they constitute a happy cohesive family in which the father, mother, children as well as other relatives enjoy love and harmony. Allah (S.W.T) said: 

(And of His signs is that He created for you from yourselves mates that you may find tranquillity in them; and He placed between you affection and mercy) 

6. Narrate a hadith about supporting your family. 

A:- The Prophet (S.A) said: ”A dinar you spend for the sake of Allah; a dinar you spend to free a slave; a dinar you give as charity to a needy person; and a dinar you spend to support your family; the one yielding the greatest reward is that which you spend on your family. [Narrated by Muslim] 

7. Why is it important in Islam to take care of parents? 

A: Allah (S.W.T) ordered us to do good for our parents. He said: 

انسحإ نيدلولٱبو هايإ لَّإ اودبعت لَّأ كبر ىضقو ) ) 

(And your Lord had decreed that you not worship except him, and to parents, good treatment). 

Cherishing one’s parents means obeying them, being gentle with them. Cherishing one’s parents after they are dead means supplicating to Allah to have mercy upon them, fulfilling their promises, visiting their relatives and honouring their friends. All of this makes the relationship with them one of love and harmony.

A: The Muslim maintains the ties of kinship through the following: 

Visiting one’s relatives, answering their invitations, doing good deeds for them, protecting them from harm, visiting the sick among them, participating in their celebrations, consoling them at times of grief, forgiving the wrongdoer among them, respecting their elders, having mercy upon their children and offering money to the poor among them as the reward will be doubled for those who maintain the ties of kinship and take care of the poor. The messenger of Allah (S.W.T) said: “Giving charity to a poor person is charity, and giving to a relative is two things, charity and maintaining the ties of kinship. 

9. Is it important to treat your neighbours well? 

A: Islam instructed us to do good to neighbours. The prophet (S.A) said: “He who believes in Allah and the Day of Judgment should treat his neighbours with kindness. This is achieved by treating them well, attending their celebrations, consoling them at times of grief and presenting gifts to them. 

10. Narrate meaning of a hadith related to social compassion. 

A: “A Muslim is the brother of a fellow-Muslim. He should neither commit oppression upon him nor ruin him. He who meets the need of a brother, Allah would meet his needs, and he who relieved a Muslim from hardship Allah would relieve him from the hardships to which he would be put on the Day of Judgment. He who did not expose the follies of a Muslim, Allah would conceal his follies on the Day of Judgment.” [Narrated by Al-Bukhari and Muslim]. 

11. How can we be good to non - Muslims? 

A:- Doing good to non-Muslims involves being kind to the weak, meeting the needs of the poor and feeding the hungry among them, talking nicely to them, praying for their right guidance and happiness, safeguarding their wealth and honour, protecting all their rights, helping them defend themselves against oppression and not forcing them to convert to Islam. Allah (S.W.T) said: 

(There shall be no compulsion in acceptance of the religion. The right course has become clear from the wrong.) [Al-Baqarah: 256].

• Deduce the reward of maintaining the ties of kinship in this world and in the Hereafter. 

Key Words:- 

• Textbook [Page number- 267] 

Question and Answers: 

Q1- Explain meaning of kinship. 

A1- Kinship means relatives on the sides of both the father and the mother; namely the parents and their parents up in several levels, the children and their children down in several levels, the brothers and their children, the sisters and their children, and uncles and aunts. 

Q2- Identify rights of kinship in Islam through a noble hadith. 

A2: Islam urged us to maintain good and close ties with them. The Prophet (SAW) said: 

“Learn enough about your lineage to facilitate keeping your ties of kinship. For indeed keeping the ties of kinship encourages affection among the relatives, increases the wealth, and increases the lifespan.” [Narrated by Al Tirmidhi’]. 

Q3- What has Allah (SWT) guided us to do, for maintaining the ties of kinship in Surat-un- Nisa? 

A3- Allah (SWT) has said: 

اسملاو ىماتيلاو ىبرقلا يذبو اناسحإ نيدلاولابو ائيش هب اوكرشت لاو اللّ اودبعاو{ ىبرقلا يذ راجلاو نيك تكلم امو ليبسلا نباو بنجلاب بحاصلاو بنجلا راجلاو }اروخف لااتخم ناك نم بحي لا اللّ نإ مكناميأ :ءاسنلا[ 36 ] 

(Worship Allah and associate nothing with Him, and to parents do good, and to relatives, orphans, the needy, the near neighbor, the neighbor farther away, the 

companion at your side, the traveler; and those whom your right hand possess. Indeed, Allah does not like those who are self deluding and boastful.) [An Nisa’:36]. 

In this Ayah when Allah (SWT) after ruling of His worship, commanded us to do good deeds to the parents, He ordered to do the same with relatives and other deserving people. 

Q4- Write an authentic hadeeth about benefits of maintaining the ties of kinship. 

A4- 

نع سَنَأ نْب ك لاَم هنع الله يضر « :َلاَق ،َمَّلَسَو هْيَلَع ُالله ىَّلَص الله َلوُسَر َّنَأ ُهَل َطَسْبُ ي ْنَأ َّبَحَأ ْنَم فِ ُهَل َأَسْنُ يَو ، ه قْز ر فِ »ُهَ حَِر ْل صَيْلَ ف ه رَثَأ )ملسمو يراخبلا هاور( 

Anas bin Malik (RA) reported that the Messenger of Allah (SWT) said: “He who desires ample provisions and his life be prolonged should maintain good ties with his blood relations”. [Narrated by Al-Bukhari and Muslim]. 

Q5-Explore the meaning of “ample provisions” and “prolonged life” (blesses lifespan) in the above Hadith. 

A5- The word “provisions” in the hadith means two things: reward and forgiveness in the hereafter, and the provision in this world, including wealth, health, children, peace of mind, guidance by Allah (SWT), good reputation and useful knowledge. 

And “prolonged life” or “blessed life span” here means having enough time for doing good deeds that help man in the Hereafter and bring benefits to the society in this world, mastering one’s work and earning the living of the person and their dependents. 

Q6- Explain how Islam emphasize being good to all blood relations. 

A6- Our religion urged us to maintain cohesion and harmony of hearts by keeping good ties with our kinship and considered this, one of the signs of faith. The messenger of Allah (SWT) said:

Allah (SWT) said: 

} ليبسلا نباو نيكسملاو هقح ىبرقلا اذ تآو{ :ءارسلإا[ 26 ] 

(And give the relative his right, and also the poor and the traveler) [Al Isra’:26] 

Q8- What are the merits of maintaining the ties of kinship? 

A8- Abu Ayoub Al Ansari (RA) reported that a man came to the Prophet (SAW) and said: “Direct to me a deed which draws me near to Paradise and takes me away from the fire.” Upon this the Prophet (SAW) said: 

“You worship Allah (SWT) and never Associate anything with HIM, perform prayer, pay Zakat, and do good to your kin.” When he turned his back, the Messenger of Allah (SAW) remarked: “If he adheres to do what he has been ordered to do, he would enter paradise.” [Narrated by Muslim]. 

Q9- What is the reward for maintaining ties of kinship? 

Q9- Allah (SWT) gives the Muslim reward for maintaining ties of kinship in this world, in addition to the reward he will receive on the Day of Judgment. This is because maintaining the ties of kinship is one of the best good deeds which bring one closer to Allah (SWT). The Messenger of Allah (SWT) said:
