> The word "Rahim" literally means womb, so it refers strictly to binding the ties of the womb. Maintaining relationships with friends or networking isn't silaturahim. That's actually called Silatul-Ukhuwah (bonds of brotherhood) or Silatun-Nas (bonds with people).

Exactly. Also, I researched tadi:

1. Some family members/relatives can be troublemakers.

2. Kalau kita kurangkan contact pun, tak bermaksud silaturrahim terputus.

3. Yang bahaya/salahnya cuma bila ada total spiteful severance (putus hubungan cara benci, menghina, dendam, tolak semua bentuk berdamai).

So offer civility: bagi salam kalau terjumpa, jawab bila perlu, doa for their wellbeing, jangan doa orang tu ditimpa keburukan/sakit.

Tak perlu rapat, tapi jangan bermusuh (shahna').
