The ruling on relying on kinship with the Messenger without action

Question:
If he affirms all of this, but he takes comfort in the fact that he is from the descendants of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), or that they are his neighbors, or other such reasons, or that he… takes comfort. Read. In the fact that he is from the descendants of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), or that they are his neighbors?

Answer:
His neighbors, a neighbor meaning? Yes. Yes, because some of the superstitious people and some of the tomb-worshippers say, “I have nothing to worry about if I sin, if I do anything. I am a relative of the Messenger. I am from the People of the House. It is enough for me that I am from the People of the House. I am from the People of Paradise because I am a relative of the Messenger. And from the People of the House.” Well, this does not benefit you, that you are from the People of the House while you are not, and you associate partners with Allah the Exalted and Majestic, or you do nothing, neglecting the deeds. This does not benefit you, your kinship with the People of the House.
This is Abu Talib, who did good to the Messenger and protected him from the harm of the disbelievers. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) tried to have him embrace Islam before his death, and he tried to testify that there is no god but Allah. He said, "There is no god but Allah," but he refused to say it. He refused to say it out of pride, even though he knew it was the truth, but it was pride for the religion of the pre-Islamic age of ignorance, fearing for his father, his people, and his tribe that they would be reviled. So, may Allah protect us, he preferred the pride of the pre-Islamic age of ignorance over accepting the truth, and he died upon disbelief. He refused to say it; he said, "I am upon the religion of 'Abd al-Muttalib, the religion of 'Abd al-Muttalib," which is polytheism, and he refused to say, "There is no god but Allah." What benefit did it bring him that he was the uncle of the Messenger, or that he defended the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)? What benefit did it bring him? . And when he said , Allah the Exalted said: Look, .
Likewise, Abu Lahab, the uncle of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and Allah revealed in his regard what you know: What benefit did it bring him that he was the uncle of the Messenger and a relative of the Messenger? That did not benefit him. Kinship alone is not sufficient; kinship with religion, yes. But kinship without religion has no value and does not benefit its owner. The uncles of the Messenger are in the Fire. His father is in the Fire. All the polytheists from Quraysh and from Banu Hashim, all of them are in the Fire. What benefit did it bring them that they were relatives of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)? So the criterion is the deed, not the lineage. The criterion is the deed. And Allah the Exalted does not look at lineages; He looks at deeds. . So those who rely on the fact that they are from the People of the House and that they will not be punished, and that they rely on this, are relying on vapor. They are relying on vapor, on a crumbling sand dune that has no value. One must be aware of this: that kinship with the Messenger alone is not sufficient; it must be accompanied by deeds. When the word of Allah the Exalted was revealed to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): , what did he do? He climbed upon al-Safa and then called out. His uncles and relatives gathered around him, and he said, "O people of Quraysh, buy something from Allah. Ask me . How can one come and say, "I am sufficient because I am a relative of the Messenger," while Allah the Exalted commanded His Prophet to warn , to warn them against shirk (associating partners with Allah) and kufr (disbelief), and to enter into Islam, otherwise it will not benefit them that they are uncles of the Messenger, or aunts of the Messenger, or even the daughter of the Messenger; that will not benefit her.
Now, this is Ibrahim (peace be upon him); his father died upon shirk (associating partners with Allah) and polytheism, and he became one of the people of the Fire, and Ibrahim could not do anything for him. The intimate friend of Allah could not do anything for him, and he was his father. Noah (peace be upon him); his son became with the disbelievers and perished with them, and Noah could not do anything for him from Allah. In one reading, "a righteous deed." So kinship with the prophets does not benefit unless it is accompanied by righteous deeds and steadfastness upon the religion of Allah the Mighty and Majestic. And there is no doubt that the believing relatives of the Messenger have a distinction over others, but one does not rely on this alone, yes.
