Hadith 1264
۞
4. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from Ahmad from al- Hassan ibn Mahbub from Malik ibn ‘Atiyyah from abu ‘Ubaydah from abu Ja’far (a.s.) who has said the following
“It is written in the book of Ali (a.s.) ‘There are three characteristics, that if found in anyone, he will never die before suffering their consequences: treachery, failing to maintain good relations with relatives and taking a false oath to oppose Allah thereby. Of the acts of obedience with the quickest best result is to maintain good relations with relatives. A people may happen to be unjust in their affairs but maintain good relations with relatives, their wealth increases and they grow rich. False oath and failing to maintain good relations with relatives can leave a town in mins, empty of the inhabitants and transform the family. Transformation of family is discontinuation of the lineage and reproduction.’”
4ـ عَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ عَطِيَّةَ عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
فِي كِتَابِ عَلِيٍّ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) ثَلاثُ خِصَالٍ لا يَمُوتُ صَاحِبُهُنَّ أَبَداً حَتَّى يَرَى وَبَالَهُنَّ الْبَغْيُ وَقَطِيعَةُ الرَّحِمِ وَالْيَمِينُ الْكَاذِبَةُ يُبَارِزُ الله بِهَا وَإِنَّ أَعْجَلَ الطَّاعَةِ ثَوَاباً لَصِلَةُ الرَّحِمِ وَإِنَّ الْقَوْمَ لَيَكُونُونَ فُجَّاراً فَيَتَوَاصَلُونَ فَتَنْمِي أَمْوَالُهُمْ وَيُثْرُونَ وَإِنَّ الْيَمِينَ الْكَاذِبَةَ وَقَطِيعَةَ الرَّحِمِ لَتَذَرَانِ الدِّيَارَ بَلاقِعَ مِنْ أَهْلِهَا وَتَنْقُلُ الرَّحِمَ وَإِنَّ نَقْلَ الرَّحِمِ انْقِطَاعُ النَّسْلِ.
