Sahih Muslim, 2249 b
sahihAbu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:
None of you should say: My bondman, for all of you are the bondmen of Allah, but say: My young man, and the servant should not say: My Lord, but should say: My chief.
وَحَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي، هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم
لاَ يَقُولَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ عَبْدِي . فَكُلُّكُمْ عَبِيدُ اللَّهِ وَلَكِنْ لِيَقُلْ فَتَاىَ . وَلاَ يَقُلِ الْعَبْدُ رَبِّي . وَلَكِنْ لِيَقُلْ سَيِّدِي
.
