Sahih Muslim 2249a (Book 40, Hadith 13) #12963
Respect for All

SUMMARY: This hadith emphasizes the importance of treating all people with respect and dignity, regardless of their social status.

Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger as saying: None of you should say: My bondman and my slave-girl, for all of you are the bondmen of Allah, and all your women are the slave-girls of Allah; but say: My servant, my girl, and my young man and my young girl.
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ، وَقُتَيْبَةُ، وَابْنُ، حُجْرٍ قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، - وَهُوَ ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ - عَنِ الْعَلاَءِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏ "‏ لاَ يَقُولَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ عَبْدِي وَأَمَتِي ‏.‏ كُلُّكُمْ عَبِيدُ اللَّهِ وَكُلُّ نِسَائِكُمْ إِمَاءُ اللَّهِ وَلَكِنْ لِيَقُلْ غُلاَمِي وَجَارِيَتِي وَفَتَاىَ وَفَتَاتِي

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith emphasizes the importance of treating all people with respect and dignity, regardless of their social status. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught us that we should not refer to anyone as our “bondman” or “slave-girl” because everyone is a servant of Allah SWT. Instead, we should use respectful terms such as “my servant” or “my girl” when referring to others. This hadith teaches us that everyone deserves to be treated with kindness and respect, no matter what their position in society may be. We must remember that Allah SWT loves those who are kind and merciful towards others, so it is important for us to show respect for all people in our lives.
