Neglecting Dependents is a Sin

SUMMARY: Neglecting one's dependents is a sin.

'Abdullah bin 'Amr bin Al-'as (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: Messenger of Allah said, "Neglecting one's own dependents is a reason enough for a man to commit a sin". Abu Dawud The narration in Muslim is: Messenger of Allah said, "It is enough sin for a person to hold back the due of one whose provision is in his hand".

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith teaches us that it is wrong to neglect the people who are dependent on us for their provision and care. It could be our family, friends, or anyone else who relies on us for their needs. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that not taking care of these people is enough to make someone commit a sin. This means that we should always strive to provide for those in need and take responsibility for them if they are unable to do so themselves. We should also remember that Allah will reward us if we take good care of our dependents and punish us if we neglect them.
