13th Hadith Translation Abu Hamzah Anas bin Malik (R.A.), who was the servant of the Messenger of Allah (S.A.W.) reported that the Prophet (S.A.W.), said: "None of you truly believes (in Allah and in His religion) until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself" [Bukhari: 13 & Muslim: 45 (a)]
Brief Narration The Hadith lays down a very significant principle of behavior of Muslims with each other. A true Islamic community is when it is built upon love and compassion for its members. Every member should care for and help one another. They should treat others in ways they want to be treated.
Based on this logic. Would it be right to say Allah would prefer more if we freed slaves rather than have them?
Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “The strong believer is more beloved to Allah than the weak believer, but there is goodness in both of them. Be eager for what benefits you, seek help from Allah, and do not be frustrated. If something befalls you, then do not say: If only I had done something else. Rather say: Allah has decreed what he wills. Verily, the phrase ‘if only’ opens the way for the work of Satan.”
Based on this logic also can we say that a freed man is more beloved than the one who is enslaved?
Narrated by Abu Huraira
The Prophet said, "Whoever frees a Muslim slave, Allah will save all parts of his body from the (Hell) Fire as he has freed the body-parts of the slave." Said bin Marjana said that he narrated that Hadith to 'Ali bin Al-Husain and he freed his slave for whom 'Abdullah bin Ja'far had offered him ten thousand Dirhams or one-thousand Dinars.
What is then your opinion to slave owning as a muslim?
