Abu Bakrah narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said:
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، عَنْ عُيَيْنَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " مَا مِنْ ذَنْبٍ أَجْدَرُ أَنْ يُعَجِّلَ اللَّهُ لِصَاحِبِهِ الْعُقُوبَةَ فِي الدُّنْيَا مَعَ مَا يَدَّخِرُ لَهُ فِي الآخِرَةِ مِنَ الْبَغْىِ وَقَطِيعَةِ الرَّحِمِ " . قَالَ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ .
"There is no sin more worthy of Allah hastening the punishment upon its practitioner in the world – along with what is in store for him in the Hereafter – than tyranny and severing the ties of kinship.” (Sahih)
