  2. Maintaining kinship ties is regarded as such in accordance with what is customary, differing with the different places, times, and people.
  3. Kinship ties are maintained by visits, charity, benevolence, visiting the sick, enjoining good and forbidding evil, and so on.
  4. The closer the relatives with whom ties are severed, the greater the sin.
