Part One: Ahadith 1 to 249
باب من ختم على خادمه مخافة سوء الظن
Sealing the servant out of suspicion
Hadith Number: 124
124/167 عن ابي العالية قال:" كنا نؤمر ان نختم على الخادم، ونكيل، ونعدها؛ كراهية ان يتعودوا خلق سوء، او يظن احدنا ظن سوء".
Abu Aliah says that we were instructed to seal anything before handing it over to the servants. Measure and count the item before handing it over so that their habits do not get spoiled and we do not become suspicious.
