The Ruling on Reciprocating Kindness and the Meaning of Increased Lifespan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is reciprocating kindness considered maintaining family ties?

Answer:
A: Yes, it is both reciprocation and maintaining family ties.
Q: Is the increase in lifespan real:
Whoever loves to have his lifespan extendedمَن أحبَّ أن يُنْسَأ له في أثره
Sahih Ibn Hibban 6:132
?
A: Yes, this is the case. The increase comes through blessing, and the increase comes through years. It may be conditional; Allah may write for a person one hundred years on the condition of maintaining his family ties, and for another eighty years on the condition of maintaining his family ties, and for a third sixty years on the condition of maintaining his family ties. It is a conditional decree based on these causes.
