Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: I heard the Messenger (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) say: "All of you are shepherds and every one of you is responsible for his herd. A leader is a shepherd, a man is the shepherd over his family and a woman is the shepherd over her husband’s house and his children. So all of you are shepherds, and every one of you is responsible for his herd." In another wording: ''All of you are shepherds and every one of you is responsible for his herd. A leader is a shepherd and is responsible for his herd. A man is the shepherd over his family and is responsible for his herd. A woman is the shepherd over the house of her husband and is responsible for her herd. A servant is the shepherd over the wealth of his master and is responsible for his herd. So all of you are shepherds, and every one of you is responsible for his herd.''
Everyone is entrusted with the protection and care of those under him, and will be held accountable for them. For instance, a ruler will be asked about his subjects on the Day of Judgment. Likewise, a man is responsible for his family, and he should command them to obey Allah, forbid them to disobey Him, and fulfill their due rights. He will be asked about these duties on the Day of Judgment. Also, a woman is responsible for keeping her husband’s house and for caring for the children, and she will be questioned about this on the Day of Judgment. A servant is also a protector of his master’s wealth and will be questioned about that on the Day of Judgment. So everyone is invested with the responsibility of protecting those under their care and they will be questioned about this on the Day of Judgment.
