Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنِي مِسْعَرٌ عَنْ شَيْخٍ مِنْ فَهْمٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ أُتِيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِلَحْمٍ فَجَعَلَ الْقَوْمُ يُلَقُّونَهُ اللَّحْمَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ أَطْيَبَ اللَّحْمِ لَحْمُ الظَّهْرِ.
English Translation
Abu Hurayrah reported that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 'None of you should say: My slave (abdi) and my slave-girl (amati). And none of your slaves should say: My lord (rabbi) and my lady (rabbati). Rather, the master should say: My boy (fatay) and my girl (fatati), and the slave should say: My master (sayyidi) and my mistress (sayyidati) — for you are all slaves and the Lord is Allah the Almighty.'
