ابن ماجہ #4256
قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ وَحَدَّثَنِي حُمَيْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ دَخَلَتْ امْرَأَةٌ النَّارَ فِي هِرَّةٍ رَبَطَتْهَا فَلَا هِيَ أَطْعَمَتْهَا وَلَا هِيَ أَرْسَلَتْهَا تَأْکُلُ مِنْ خَشَاشِ الْأَرْضِ حَتَّی مَاتَتْ قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ لِئَلَّا يَتَّکِلَ رَجُلٌ وَلَا يَيْئَسَ رَجُلٌ
It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah P.B.U.H said: "A woman entered Hell because of a cat which she tied up and did not feed, or let It loose to eat of the vermin of the earth, until it died." (Sahih) (One of the narrators) Zuhri said: "S0 a man should neither rely completely [on the mercy of Allah (and become complacent), nor should he despair (of the mercy of Allah)."
