Keeping Contact with Kinship
Who Are the Kindred With Whom Ties of Kinship Must Be Upheld?
1. The correct scholarly view is that the kindred with whom ties of kinship must be upheld refers to all blood relatives – not relatives through breastfeeding – on both the father`s and the mother`s side. As for the wife`s relatives, they are not kindred for the husband, and the husband`s relatives are not kindred for the wife. 2. Upholding the ties of kinship may be done in many ways, such as visiting, giving charity, treating them kindly, visiting them when they are sick, enjoining them to do what is good and forbidding them to do what is evil, and so on.63,249Advice and guidelines for a large family who want to have regular gatherings
