Muwatta Malik #1930
General Subjects
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم
" لِلْمَمْلُوكِ طَعَامُهُ وَكِسْوَتُهُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَلاَ يُكَلَّفُ مِنَ الْعَمَلِ إِلاَّ مَا يُطِيقُ " .
Malik related to me that he heard that Abu Hurayra said that the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "A
slave has his food and clothing in the normal manner, and he is only
obliged to do such work as he is capable of doing."
