English translation

It is narrated from Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that once some camel owners began to boast in the presence of the Prophet (ﷺ). The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Calmness and dignity are found among the shepherds of goats, and pride and arrogance are found among the owners of camels." And the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "When Musa (peace be upon him) was appointed as a prophet, he used to graze goats for his family, and when I was appointed as a prophet, I too used to graze goats for my family at the place of Ji'ad."
