1945. Abū Dharr narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Allāh has made some of your brothers as slaves under your care. So whoever has his brother under his care, then let him feed him from his food, and let him clothe him from his clothes. And do not give him a
duty he can not bear, and if you give him a duty he can not bear, then assist him with it.” (Sahih)
[He said:] There are narrations on this topic from ‘Ali, Umm Salamah, Ibn ‘Umar, and Abū Hurairah.
[Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Hadith is Hasan Sahih.

Commentary
The Hadith makes each slave the brother of his master. This being the relationship, the masters have been exhorted to treat their servants and slaves as brothers and give them the same kind of food and clothing as they would have for themselves.
