49. Chapter
٤٩۔ كِتَابُ النَّفَقَاتِ
[Machine] "From the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , that he said to a slave, his food and clothing are his responsibilities, and he should not be burdened with work that he cannot bear."
عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِلْمَمْلُوكِ طَعَامُهُ وَكِسْوَتُهُ وَلَا يُكَلَّفُ مِنَ الْعَمَلِ مَا لَا يُطِيقُ
It is essential to feed the slave, clothe him (properly) and not burden him with work which is beyond his power. (Using translation from Muslim 1662)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لِلْمَمْلُوكِ طَعَامُهُ وَكِسْوَتُهُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَلَا يُكَلَّفُ مِنَ الْعَمَلِ إِلَّا مَا يُطِيقُ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "It is sufficient for a believer to be sinful if he withholds the livelihood of someone who is under his authority."
وَقَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ كَفَى بِالْمُؤْمِنِ إِثْمًا أَنْ يَحْبِسَ عِنْدَهُ عَمَّنْ يَمْلِكُ قُوتَهُ
