Hadrat Abu Zarr (Radi Allaahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated that the Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) said, “ALLAAH has put your brethren under you authority, so he who has his brother put under his authority by ALLAAH must feed him from what he eats, clothe him from what he wears, and not impose on him work which is too much for him, but if he does so he must help him with it.” [Bukhari, Muslim]
Hadrat Abu Hurairah (Radi Allaahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated that the Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) said, “When any one’s servants prepares his food and brings it to him after being near its heat and smoke, he should make him sit down with him and eat; but if the company is large and the food is small in quantity he should put one or two mouthfuls of it in his hand. [Muslim]
