(Book 54, Hadith 28) #36836
Feeding Slaves Instead of Paying for Cupping

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) forbade Ibn Muhayyisa al-Ansari from paying for cupping and instead advised him to feed his slaves.

Malik related to me from Ibn Shihab from Ibn Muhayyisa al-Ansari, one of the Banu Haritha, that he asked permission from the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, to give payment for cupping, and he forbade him to do it. He continued to ask and seek his permission until he said, "Feed the ones who drive your water-carrying camels," meaning "your slaves".
وَحَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ مُحَيِّصَةَ الأَنْصَارِيِّ، أَحَدِ بَنِي حَارِثَةَ أَنَّهُ اسْتَأْذَنَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فِي إِجَارَةِ الْحَجَّامِ فَنَهَاهُ عَنْهَا فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَسْأَلُهُ وَيَسْتَأْذِنُهُ حَتَّى قَالَ ‏ "‏ اعْلِفْهُ نُضَّاحَكَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ يَعْنِي رَقِيقَكَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of taking care of one's slaves. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) forbade Ibn Muhayyisa al-Ansari from paying for cupping and instead advised him to feed his slaves. This shows that the Prophet was very concerned about the welfare of those who were enslaved and wanted them to be taken care of properly by their masters. He also wanted people to understand that slavery was not something that should be taken lightly or abused in any way. It is important for us today to remember this lesson and treat all people with respect regardless of their social status or economic standing in society.
