[EP07] How Muhammad (ﷺ) Treated His Servant - Story Of Muhammad (ﷺ) - #SeerahSeries - Yasir Qadhi
Allah’s Messenger (pbuh) saw the people in his service like everybody else as the servants of Allah and treated them nicely. For him, there was no difference between a master and a servant in respect to being humans. He first corrected inappropriate references to servants. (Bukhari, Itq, 17) He stated in one of his traditions:

“Abu Huraira reported Allah’s Messenger (pbuh) as saying:

“None of you should say: My bondman and my slave-girl, for all of you are the bondsmen of Allah, and all your women are the slave-girls of Allah; but say: My servant, my girl, and my young man and my young girl.” (Muslim, Alfaz, 15)

“When your servant brings your food to you, if you do not ask him to join you, then at least ask him to take one or two handfuls, for he has suffered from its heat (while cooking it) and has taken pains to cook it nicely.” (Bukhari, At’imah, 55; Tirmidhi, At’imah, 44)

“Someone’s spending on his family, his children, and his maids are all charity.” (Ibn Majah, Tijarah, 1)
