Abstract:

This research dealt with a valuable topic that falls within social relations, which is the issue of upholding ties of kinship, through a reflection of the approach adopted by the Qur’an in establishing this quality and demonstrating its virtues. This was the essence of the topic.

In addition to that, the research also included an explanation of the concept of kinship ties as an additional compound, then as a title. It also talked about the most prominent Qur’anic expressions used to denote the kinship, such as: kinship, lineage, clan, and others.

This research was concluded with results, including:

- Upholding ties of kinship is rightly considered one of the greatest Qur’anic qualities that a believer can embody in his life, and by it he draws closer to his Lord.

- Upholding ties of kinship is the connection of the relatives, whoever they were; That is: without restriction of sanctity, inheritance, paternity, motherhood, kinship or distance in lineage.

- Upholding ties of kinship is a title given to benevolence towards relatives other than parents. For charity to parents has its own title, which is “honoring one’s parents.”

- The Qur’an adopted two prominent approaches in determining the upholding ties of kinship, namely: the quantitative approach based on the repetition of verses on this subject, albeit with different methods, and the qualitative approach that clarifies those methods.

- The methods used within the qualitative approach in establishing this subject are very numerous, and some of them are clear, and some are hidden that require contemplation and reflection. Also, some of them relate to the aspect of rhetoric and Quranic systems, and some of them refer to the aspect of legislation.

This, in addition to many other results, and useful recommendations, which I mentioned in the conclusion of the research.
