When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to Madinah, Anas's mother Umm Sulaym brought her young son and said: O Messenger of Allah, this is Anas; he will serve you. For ten years after that Anas stayed close to him, at home and outside.

❝ Hadith
Anas said: I served the Messenger of Allah ﷺ for ten years. He never once said 'uff' to me. He never said: why did you do this? or: why did you not do that?
Sahih al-Bukhari 6038 · Sahih

A child who surely made mistakes, ran late and forgot tasks — and yet never heard a word of rebuke. Anas lived a long life, and countless sayings and ways of the Prophet ﷺ reached us through him.

The lesson
Gentleness towards those who work for us is true greatness.
