Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي يَعْقُوبَ الْكِرْمَانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَسَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏"‏ مَنْ سَرَّهُ أَنْ يُبْسَطَ لَهُ رِزْقُهُ أَوْ يُنْسَأَ لَهُ فِي أَثَرِهِ فَلْيَصِلْ رَحِمَهُ ‏"‏‏.‏

Translation

Muhammad ibn Abi Yaqub al-Kirmani narrated to us: Hassan narrated to us: Yunus narrated to us: Muhammad narrated to us, from Anas ibn Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: “Whoever would be pleased to have his provision expanded and his lifespan extended, let him maintain his ties of kinship.”

Translation notes
  • The Arabic idiom في أثره is rendered as an extension of lifespan.
