حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ هَمَّامِ بْنِ مُنَبِّهٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ يُحَدِّثُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنَّهُ قَالَ ‏ "‏ لاَ يَقُلْ أَحَدُكُمْ أَطْعِمْ رَبَّكَ، وَضِّئْ رَبَّكَ، اسْقِ رَبَّكَ. وَلْيَقُلْ سَيِّدِي مَوْلاَىَ. وَلاَ يَقُلْ أَحَدُكُمْ عَبْدِي أَمَتِي. وَلْيَقُلْ فَتَاىَ وَفَتَاتِي وَغُلاَمِي ‏"‏.

বাংলা অনুবাদ
আবূ হুরাইরাহ্ (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেন, তোমাদের কেউ যেন এমন কথা না বলে ‘‘তোমার প্রভুকে আহার করাও’’ ‘‘তোমার প্রভুকে অযু করাও’’ ‘‘তোমার প্রভুকে পান করাও’’ আর যেন (দাস ও বাঁদীরা) এরূপ বলে, ‘‘আমার মনিব’’ ‘আমার অভিভাবক’, তোমাদের কেউ যেন এরূপ না বলে ‘‘আমার দাস, আমার দাসী’’। বরং বলবে- ‘আমার বালক’ ‘আমার বালিকা’ ‘আমার খাদিম’। (আধুনিক প্রকাশনীঃ ২৩৬৭, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশনঃ)
