51. Companionship of Women
٥١۔ كِتَابُ عِشْرَةِ النِّسَاءِ
I heard Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Everyone of you is a guardian, and responsible for what is in his custody. The ruler is a guardian of his subjects and responsible for them; a husband is a guardian of his family and is responsible for it; a lady is a guardian of her husband's house and is responsible for it, and a servant is a guardian of his master's property and is responsible for it." I heard that from Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I think that the Prophet ﷺ also said, "A man is a guardian of is father's property and is responsible for it, so all of you are guardians and responsible for your wards and things under your care." (Using translation from Bukhārī 2409)
أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ كُلُّ رَاعٍ مَسْئُولٌ عَنْ رَعِيَّتِهِ الْإِمَامُ رَاعٍ وَمَسْئُولٌ عَنْ رَعِيَّتِهِ وَالرَّجُلُ رَاعٍ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَهُوَ مَسْئُولٌ عَنْ رَعِيَّتِهِ وَالْمَرْأَةُ فِي بَيْتِ زَوْجِهَا رَاعِيَةٌ وَهِيَ مَسْئُولَةٌ عَنْ رَعِيَّتِهَا وَالْخَادِمُ رَاعٍ فِي مَالِ سَيِّدِهِ وَمَسْئُولٌ عَنْ رَعِيَّتِهِ وَالرَّجُلُ فِي مَالِ أَبِيهِ رَاعٍ وَهُوَ مَسْئُولٌ عَنْ رَعِيَّتِهِ وَكُلُّكُمْ رَاعٍ وَكُلُّكُمْ مَسْئُولٌ عَنْ رَعِيَّتِهِ
[Machine] Narrated Prophet Muhammad ﷺ , "Indeed, Allah will question every shepherd about the flock under their care, whether they have taken care of them or neglected them, until a person will be asked about the people of his household." Abu Abdur Rahman said, "None of us has heard this except from Muadh bin Hisham, other than Ishaq bin Ibrahim bin Rahawayh who informed us. Ishaq bin Ibrahim said, 'Muadh bin Hisham informed us.' Qatadah narrated to us from Al-Hasan something similar."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنَّ اللهَ سَائِلٌ كُلَّ رَاعٍ عَمَّا اسْتَرْعَاهُ أَحَفِظَ ذَلِكَ أَمْ ضَيَّعَ؟ حَتَّى يُسْأَلَ الرَّجُلُ عَلَى أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ» قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا أَحَدٌ عَلِمْنَاهُ عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ غَيْرَ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ رَاهَوَيْهِ أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ 9130 أَخْبَرَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ مِثْلَهُ
