Sahih Muslim Hadith 4315 – Feeding A Slave

English

[4315] 40 – ( … ) It was narrated that A]-Ma'rür bin Suwaid said: "I saw Abü Uharr wearing a Ijullah and his slave was wearing something similar. I asked him about that and he said that he had insulted a man at the time of the Messenger of Allah , criticizing him because of his mother. The man went to the Prophet and told him about that, and the Prophet said: 'You are a man in whom there is still some ignorance. (They are) your brothers and servants whom Allah has placed under your control, so whoever has his brother under his control, let him feed him what he eats and clothe him with what he wears. And do not burden them with more than they can bear, and if you do that, then help them."
