حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ نِعِمَّا لِأَحَدِهِمْ أَنْ يُطِيعَ رَبَّهُ وَيُؤَدِّيَ حَقَّ سَيِّدِهِ يَعْنِي الْمَمْلُوکَ و قَالَ کَعْبٌ صَدَقَ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ وَفِي الْبَاب عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَی وَابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَی هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ

Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah said: How wonderful it is for one of them that he obeys Allah and fulfills the rights of his master. Meaning the slave. And Ka'b said: Allah and His Messenger spoke the truth.
