Summary
A report of Abu Hurayra (may God be pleased with him) in the chapter on keeping ties of kinship in Sahih Muslim: the Prophet ﷺ's counsel for the one who joins ties to someone who mistreats him. Those kin are as though he feeds them hot ash, and God will support him against them as long as he keeps the ties. 1
