It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Each of you is a shepherd and each of you will be questioned about his flock. Thus, the ruler is responsible for his subjects and will be questioned about them; a man is responsible for his household and will be questioned about them; a woman is responsible for her husband's house and will be questioned about it; a servant is responsible for his master's wealth and will be questioned about it. In short, each of you is a shepherd and each of you will be questioned about his flock."
