Other Relatives
A family also includes siblings and other kinfolk. Islam has certainly not ignored any of the
relatives of an individual. In numerous
places in the Quran, God emphasizes the importance of treating one’s relatives
in a good and kindly fashion. God says,
for example:
“Worship God and join none with Him in worship, and do good
to parents, kinsfolk…” (Quran 4:36)
God also speaks about spending on one’s relatives:
“They ask you (O Muhammad) what they should spend. Say: Whatever you spend of good must be for
parents and kindred…” (Quran 2:215)
God also says:
“It is not piety that you turn your faces towards east and
(or) west (in prayers); but Al-piety is (the quality of) the one who believes
in God, the Last Day, the Angels, the Book, the Prophets and gives his wealth,
in spite of love for it, to the kinsfolk…” (Quran 2:177)
The Prophet Muhammad was requested:
“Inform me of a deed that will take me closer to Paradise
and distance me from the Hell-fire.” He
replied, “Worship God and do not ascribe any partner to Him, establish the
prayer, give the zakat and keep the ties of kinship.”[3]
Keeping the ties of kinship refers to doing good towards
them with one’s speech, actions and wealth.
It includes kind words, visits, charity and generosity. It also includes keeping any harm from coming
to them and doing one’s best to bring happiness to them.
The Muslim must understand that keeping the ties of kinship
is an obligation and not simply a meritorious act. In the Quran, God praises those…
“…who join that which God has commanded to be joined (i.e.
they are good to their relatives and do not sever the bond of kinship), fear
their Lord, and dread the terrible reckoning” (Quran 13:21)
The Prophet said:
“The one who cuts off the ties of kinship will not enter
Paradise.”[4]
Islam has emphasized every type of familial tie
possible. It has provided guidance
showing the importance of the ties with parents, children, spouses and other
relatives. It exhorts every Muslim to
fulfill these ties to receive God’s pleasure in return. In addition (although not completely stressed
in this short paper), it has provided laws and strict regulations that allow
the individual to realize how best to keep the proper ties with all of his or
her kith and kin.
Pilgrims praying at the mosque in Makkah.
The rites of the Hajj, which are of Abrahamic origin,
include circling the Ka'ba seven times, and going seven times between the
mountains of Safa and Marwa as did Hagar during her search for water. Then the
pilgrims stand together on the wide plain of Arafa and join in prayers for
God's forgiveness, in what is often thought of as a preview of the Last
Judgment.
In previous centuries the Hajj was an arduous undertaking.
Today, however, Saudi Arabia provides millions of people with water, modern
transport, and the most up-to-date health facilities.

The close of the Hajj is marked by a festival, the Eid
al-Adha, which is celebrated with prayers and the exchange of gifts in Muslim
communities everywhere. This, and the Eid al-Fitr, a feast-day commemorating
the end of Ramadan, are the main festivals of the Muslim calendar.
