باب فضل الإحسان على المملوك
1360 وعنِ المَعْرُور بن سُويْدٍ قالَ: رأَيْتُ أَبَا ذَرٍّ، رضِيَ اللَّه عَنْهُ، وعليهِ حُلَّةٌ، وعَلى غُلامِهِ مِثْلُهَا، فَسَألْتُهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَذكر أنَّه سَابَّ رَجُلاً عَلَى عهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّه صَلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وسَلَّم، فَعَيَّرَهُ بأُمِّهِ، فَقَال النبيُّ صَلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وسَلَّم: "إنَّك امْرُؤٌ فِيك جاهِليَّةٌ": هُمْ إخْوانُكُمْ، وخَولُكُمْ، جعَلَهُمُ اللَّه تَحت أيدِيكُمْ، فَمَنْ كَانَ أَخُوهُ تَحت يَدهِ فليُطعِمهُ مِمَّا يَأْكلُ، وَلْيُلْبِسْهُ مِمَّا يلبَسُ، وَلاَ تُكَلِّفُوهُم مَا يَغْلبُهُمْ، فَإنْ كَلَّفتُمُوهُم فَأَعِينُوهُم "،متفقٌ عَلَيْهِ.
Hadith 1360 - Bab 237 (The Excellence of Kind Attitude towards Slaves)
Chapter 12 (The Book of Jihad)
Al-Ma'rur bin Suwaid (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: I saw Abu Dharr (May Allah be pleased with him) wearing a nice gown, and his slave was also wearing one similar to it. I asked him about it, and he said that he had exchanged harsh words with a person during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah (Peace be upon him) and put him to shame by making a reference to his mother. That person came to the Messenger of Allah (Peace be upon him) and made mention of that to him. Thereupon the Messenger of Allah said, "You are a person who has remnants of the 'Days of Ignorance' in you. Your slaves are your brothers. Allah has placed them under your authority. He who has his brother under him, should feed him from whatever he eats, and dress him with whatever he wears, and do not burden them (assign burdensome task to them) beyond their capacity; and if you burden them then help them."
[Al- Bukhari and Muslim].
1361 وَعَنْ أَبي هُريرَةَ، رضي اللَّه عَنْهُ، عَن النَّبيَّ صَلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وسَلَّم: قالَ: "إِذَا أَتى أحدَكم خَادِمُهُ بِطَعامِهِ، فَإنْ لَمْ يُجْلِسْهُ معهُ، فَليُناولْهُ لُقمةً أوْ لُقمَتَيْنِ أوْ أُكلَةً أوْ أُكلَتَيْنِ، فَإنَّهُ ولِيَ عِلاجهُ" رواه البخاري.
"الأُكلَةُ"بضم الهمزة: هِيَ اللُّقمَةُ.

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (Peace be upon him) said, "When your servant brings food for you and you do not seat him with you, you should at least give him a morsel or two out of it because he has prepared it himself."
