The tradition mentioned above has also been transmitted by 'Ali bin Hussain through a different chain of narrators. This version adds "He (the Prophet) did not provide her with a slave".
The lesson here is that we should strive to make wise decisions and use our resources responsibly, so that everyone can benefit from them without any harm being done. We should also remember that sometimes it is better to refuse certain requests if they are not beneficial or necessary in order to protect ourselves and others from potential harm or distress.
