Fearing God in one’s dealings with men

1992 8-9 August-September 26 Fearing God in one’s dealings with men (75) The Prophet once came across Abu Masud Ansari beating his slave. “You should know. Abu Masud,” He said. “that God has more power over you than you have over this slave.” Abu Masud trembled on hearing these words of the Prophet. “Messenger of God.” he said, “I am freeing this slave for God’s sake.” “If you had not acted thus, the flames of Hell would have engulfed you,” the Prophet told him.

(Abu Da’ud, Sunan)
