(1). 3251. Tāwūs narrated: Ibn 'Abbās was asked about this Āyah:
Say: "No reward do I ask of you for this except to be kind for my kinship with you."[1] So Sa'eed bin Jubair said: 'To be kind to the family of Muhammad.' Ibn 'Abbās replied: 'You know that there was no family of the Quraish except that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ had some relatives among them.' He said: 'Except that you should uphold the ties of kinship that exist between me and you.'" (Ṣaḥīh)
[Abū 'Eisā said:] This Ḥadīth is Ḥasan Ṣaḥīh. It has been reported from Ibn 'Abbās through other routes.
