How do you treat those who work for you?
Asalamu Alaikun warahmatulahi wabarakatuk, Allah subhanawo watallah, the created, sustainer, provider, protector, and curer of one and all.
Complete blessing and salutation be upon Prophet Muhammad salallahu Alaihi wasallam, his Household, his companion, those that follow him, those shall follow him, shall follow him up-to the day of judgement.Ameen.
After praising Allahu subhanawo watallah and sending salutation be upon our beloved Prophet Muhammad salallahu Alaihi wasallam.
I want us to learn a lesson from the Hadith of Anas bin Malik, how Prophet Muhammad salallahu Alaihi wasallam Treat him as his servant.
Hadith on Manners: Anas testifies to the character of the Prophet Muhammad Salallahu Alaihi wasallam.
Anas ibn Malik reported: I served the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, for ten years. By Allah, he never even said to me, “Uff!” He never said harshly for anything, “Why did you do that?” or, “Why did you not do that?”
Source: Sahih al-Bukharī 5691, Sahih Muslim 2309
Grade: Muttafaqun Alayhi (authenticity agreed upon) according to Al-Bukhari and Muslim.
The point I want raise here is how do you treat those who work for you?
Imagine Anas was given to Prophet Muhammad salallahu Alaihi wasallam as a servant by his mother and he said he serve Prophet Muhammad salallahu Alaihi wasallam for ten all years, By Allah, he never even said to me Uff! to me.(not one day he passed a comment that hurts me, not once). I sat and think for those who work for us, how do we treat them? did we make a comment that hurt them? when we ask them to do something that is very easy and it will not take them a minute to do and they take ten minutes too long, what will we said? we might said or make little noise like Uff!, AHH! or something similar to these, what do you think you're doing? If we make a little noise, we're are we with the sunnah of Prophet Muhammad salallahu Alaihi wasallam?.

He continue and he said He never said harshly for anything, “Why did you do that?” or, “Why did you not do that?” Anas said,one day I was sent by Prophet Muhammad salallahu Alaihi wasallam to do something, as I was going, then I saw young boys of my age playing a game, so i stay and I joined them and letter, I now enter on my forgot of what I was told to do, a while letter, someone just tap me on my shoulder and I look back to see who the person was and it was Prophet Muhammad salallahu Alaihi wasallam, he smiled at me and he said, Ya unais, did you forgot what I told you? I replied No yarasulullah sallahlahu Alaihi wasallam I will go now ya rasulullah salallahu Alaihi wasallam and I went". In other narration Prophet Muhammad salallahu Alaihi wasallam went to do it by him self.
Salallahu Alaihi wasallam.
I want us to draw a lesson from this, imagine you send your boy to do some necessary thing for you and you letter saw him playing a game, suddenly you tap him at his back, what will that boy think of? the boy might said, " I'm death!!! I lost my job.
what will you do?
Are you going to beat him, shout at him or sack him completely from the job, take a look at what prophet salallahu Alaihi wasallam did to Anas bin Malik, he smiled at him and said to him ya unais(he add loved and respect to Anas name by calling him ya unais) did you forget what I ask you to do? How many of us is ready to follow this beautiful exam of Prophet Muhammad salallahu Alaihi wasallam.
Anas said: Wallahi I sarve Muhammad salallahu Alaihi wasallam for Ten all years:
He never ever slap me and He never Swear me.
My brothers my sisters I want us to learn a lesson from these, look at the Prophet Muhammad salallahu Alaihi wasallam with Anas bin Malik, serving him for 10 all years, he never slap him, he never swear him, he never ask him why did you do this, why did you do it this way, He will do it by him self with a smile.
Let seat and think of those who work with us or those who work for us, did we ever slap, shout or swear for them? If we ever slap, shout and swear them, we're are we with the sunnah of Prophet Muhammad salallahu Alaihi wasallam, perfect example.
Allah subhanawo Watallah said in the Qur'an 33 verse 21
لَّقَدۡ كَانَ لَكُمۡ فِى رَسُولِ ٱللَّهِ أُسۡوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ لِّمَن كَانَ يَرۡجُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَٱلۡيَوۡمَ ٱلۡأَخِرَ وَذَكَرَ ٱللَّهَ كَثِيرًا
Indeed, you have perfect example in the life of Muhammad salallahu Alaihi wasallam in the person of Muhammad salallahu Alaihi wasallam for those who remember Allah for those who are looking forward for meeting Allah subhanawo watallah those are looking forward for the Hereafter their is example in Muhammad salallahu Alaihi wasallam.
Here he is, No swear words for those who work for him, never did he shout and never did he slap.
May Allah subhanawo watallah guide us to the straight part and protect us from evil.Ameen.
