Hadith Number: 1199
1199 صحيح حديث عبد الله بن عمر، ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، قال: كلكم راع فمسئول عن رعيته، فالامير الذي على الناس راع وهو مسئول عنهم، والرجل راع على اهل بيته وهو مسئول عنهم، والمراة راعية على بيت بعلها وولده وهي مسئولة عنهم، والعبد راع على مال سيده وهو مسئول عنه، الا فكلكم راع وكلكم مسئول عن رعيته
Narrated Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them): The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Each of you is a shepherd and each of you will be questioned about his flock. So, the leader of the people is a shepherd and he will be questioned about his flock. Every man is a shepherd over the members of his household and he will be questioned about his flock. A woman is a shepherd over her husband’s house and his children, and she will be questioned about them. A servant is a shepherd over his master’s property and he will be questioned about it. So, know that each of you is a shepherd and each of you will be questioned about his flock (on the Day of Resurrection).
