What is the explanation and interpretation of the weak Hadith: "Repent to your Lord before you die, and hasten to do good deeds before you become preoccupied, and connect what is between you and Him by frequently remembering Him," in terms of the meaning of "connect" (صلوا), and "by frequently remembering Him" (بكثرة ذكركم إياه), and who is addressed in "between you" (بينكم) and "Him" (إياه)?

This Hadith is weak, and if it were authentic, what is meant by it is fulfilling Allah's right, adhering to His command, and carrying it out in the best possible manner. And Allah's saying, "And those who join that which Allah has commanded to be joined" includes everything Allah has commanded to be joined and forbidden to be severed, pertaining to both the rights of Allah and the rights of His servants, and this includes maintaining kinship ties.
