The Prophet ﷺ keenly urged slaves to obey their masters, for Allah, Exalted is He, does not allow a doer’s good deed to go unrewarded. When a slave shoulders great burdens and duties and carries them out as due, aspiring to the reward of Allah, Exalted is He, He shall reward him handsomely. In this hadeeth, the Prophet ﷺ underlined that a slave who worships and obeys Allah, Exalted is He, as due, fulfills the rights of his master, and displays sincerity and obedience to him, within what is permissible as per the laws of Islam, earns a double reward; one for his service of his master and aspiration to the rewards of Allah, Exalted is He, and also the reward of worship, like any obedient servant of Allah who fulfills the rights of his Lord over him. The hadeeth urges slaves to perfect their adherence to and performance of the worshipful acts and be sincere in this regard. It is also deduced from the hadeeth that obedience to Allah, Exalted is He, is more imperative and takes precedence over the obedience to any created being, as it was given priority in the hadeeth. It also underlines the vast and all-inclusive nature of the divine mercy and grace bestowed by Allah, Exalted is He, on His servants, and the multiplication of their rewards. .
