Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا غَسَّانُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا يَقُولَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ عَبْدِي وَأَمَتِي وَلَا يَقُولَنَّ الْمَمْلُوكُ رَبِّي وَرَبَّتِي لِيَقُلْ الْمَالِكُ فَتَايَ وَفَتَاتِي وَلْيَقُلْ الْمَمْلُوكُ سَيِّدِي وَسَيِّدَتِي فَإِنَّهُمْ الْمَمْلُوكُونَ وَالرَّبُّ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ.
English Translation
Ghassan ibn al-Rabi' narrated to us, he said: Hammad ibn Salamah narrated to us, from Ayyub, from Ibn Sirin, from Abu Hurayrah who said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "None of you should say 'my slave' or 'my slave-girl,' nor should the owned person say 'my lord' or 'my lady.' Let the owner say 'my young man' and 'my young woman,' and let the owned person say 'my master' and 'my mistress,' for they are the owned ones and the Lord is Allah the Almighty."
