قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ وَحَدَّثَنِي حُمَيْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَالَ ‏:‏ ‏ "‏ دَخَلَتِ امْرَأَةٌ النَّارَ فِي هِرَّةٍ رَبَطَتْهَا فَلاَ هِيَ أَطْعَمَتْهَا وَلاَ هِيَ أَرْسَلَتْهَا تَأْكُلُ مِنْ خَشَاشِ الأَرْضِ حَتَّى مَاتَتْ ‏"‏ . قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ ‏:‏ لِئَلاَّ يَتَّكِلَ رَجُلٌ وَلاَ يَيْأَسَ رَجُلٌ .

বাংলা অনুবাদ
। আবূ হুরায়রা (রাঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেনঃ এক নারী একটি বিড়ালের কারণে জাহান্নামে গেছে। সে বিড়ালটিকে বেঁধে রেখেছিল, এমতাবস্থায় তাকে আহারও করায়নি এবং একে ছেড়েও দেয়নি, যাতে সে কীট-পতঙ্গ খেতে পারতো। ফলে সেটি অনাহারে মারা গেলো। যুহরী (রাঃ) বলেন, মানুষকে (নিজের আমলের উপর) ভরসা করাও উচিত নয় এবং (আল্লাহর রহমত থেকে) নিরাশ হওয়াও উচিত নয়।
