حَدِيثُ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ، ١٦٦٤٥ - حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا زَائِدَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الرُّكَيْنُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ بْنِ عُمَيْلَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي عَمْرٍو الشَّيْبَانِيِّ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ قَالَ: " الْخَيْلُ ثَلَاثَةٌ: فَرَسٌ يَرْبِطُهُ الرَّجُلُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، فَثَمَنُهُ أَجْرٌ، وَرُكُوبُهُ أَجْرٌ، وَعَارِيَتُهُ أَجْرٌ، وَعَلَفُهُ أَجْرٌ، وَفَرَسٌ يُغَالِقُ عَلَيْهِ الرَّجُلُ وَيُرَاهِنُ، فَثَمَنُهُ وِزْرٌ، وَعَلَفُهُ وِزْرٌ، وَفَرَسٌ لِلْبِطْنَةِ، فَعَسَى أَنْ يَكُونَ سَدَادًا مِنَ الْفَقْرِ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ تَعَالَى " (١)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from an Ansari companion (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: Horses are of three kinds: (1) Those horses which a person prepares for the path of Allah for jihad—their price is a source of reward, riding them is a source of reward, lending them is a source of reward, and feeding them is also a source of reward. (2) Those horses which entrap a person in the shell of arrogance, and he participates them in races for betting—their price is a source of burden and feeding them is also a source of burden. (3) Those horses which serve a person’s livelihood—soon these horses will become a means to remove his poverty and hunger, insha’Allah.
