Hadith on Rahim: The womb pleads to the Most Merciful

Anas reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Verily, the womb has an iron hook attached firmly to the Throne, speaking with a penetrating tongue: O Allah, keep relations with whoever keeps relations with me, and sever relations with whoever severs them with me. Allah Almighty says: I am the Gracious, the Merciful. I derived the womb from My name. Whoever keeps relations with it, I keep relations with him. Whoever cuts off relations with it, I cut off relations with him.

عن أنسٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِنَّ لِلرَّحِمِ حُجْنَةً مُتَمَسِّكَةً بِالْعَرْشِ تَكَّلَّمُ بِلِسَانٍ ذَلِقٍ اللَّهُمَّ صِلْ مَنْ وَصَلَنِي وَاقْطَعْ مَنْ قَطَعَنِي فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى أَنَا الرَّحْمَنُ الرَّحِيمُ وَإِنِّي شَقَقْتُ الرَّحِمَ مِنَ اسْمِي فَمَنْ وَصَلَهَا وَصَلْتُهُ وَمَنْ بَتَكَهَا بَتَكْتُهُ
