Abdulmalik Bin Museera and he from Tawoos and he from Ibn Abbas (RAA) that here in
this verse the word “Qurba” refers to the Progeny of Muhamed (SAWS).

Imam Abi Abdullah al-Ansari al-Qurtubi (RA) records in his Tafseer “Jamie Ahkam al-
Quran under the commentary of this Verse 42:23:
Al-Qurba ( ) means here the kins of Prophet (SAWS): No reward do I ask you for
this (ISLAM), except the love of my relatives and my Progeny (Aal Muhammed). And
this is the saying of Hadrat Ali ibn al-Hussain (RA), Hadrat Amrou bin Shaeeb (RA) and
asSuddi (RA).

There is another tradition in regard to “Qurba” which means “Kins” as to who they are in
the light of Qur’aan and Sunnah according to what it has been reported on the occasion of
the revealation of the following verse i.e. 17:26 (Sura Banu Israel):
And render to the kindred their due rights… (Sura Banu Israel or Isra 17:26)
Reported by so many traditionalists and the Qura’anic commentators on the authority of
Hadrat Abu Sa’eed al-Khudri (RA) that:
Upon the revelation of the above-mentioned Verse, The Holy Prophet (SAWS) asked
Archangel Jibraeel (AS) as to whom this verse referred to? Or who are the Kinsmen and
what is their due? Thereupon Jibraeel (AS) replied: “Give Fadak to Fatima” The Holy
Prophet (SAWS) called Fatima (RA) and gave *Fadak to her.
