It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet used to dislike the Shikal among horses.

It was narrated from Salim, from his father, that the Prophet said: “Omens are only in three things: a woman, a horse or a house.”

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah said: “Horses may bring reward to a man, or they may be a means of protection, or they may be a burden (of sin). As for that which brings reward, it is a man who keeps it for the cause of Allah and ties it with a long rope in a pasture or a garden; whatever it eats or drinks in that pasture or garden will count as good deeds for him. If it breaks its rope and jumps over one or two hills, its footsteps” -and according to the Hadith of Al-Harith, “its dung will count as good deeds for him. If it passes by a river and drinks from it, even though (its owner) did not intend to give it water from that river, that will also bring him reward. If a man keeps a horse in order to earn an independent living and avoid asking others for help, and he does not forget his duty toward Allah with regard to their (the horses’) necks and backs, then they will be a means of protection for him. If a man keeps horses out of pride, to show off before others and to fight the Muslims, then that will be a burden (of sin) for him.” The Prophet was asked about donkeys and he said: “Nothing has been revealed to me concerning them except this Verse which is comprehensive in meaning: ‘So whosoever does good equal to the weight of an atom (or a small ant) shall see it. And whosoever does evil equal to the weight of an atom (or a small ant) shall see it.’”

It was narrated that Anas said: “There was nothing dearer to the Messenger of Allah after women than horses.”

It was narrated that Abu Wahb, who was a Companion of the Prophet, said: “The Messenger of Allah said: ‘Call (your children) by the names of the prophets. And the most beloved names to Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, are ‘Abdullah and ‘Abdur-Rahman. Keep horses; wipe their forelocks and posteriors, and prepare them for Jihad, but do not prepare them to seek vengeance for people killed during the Jahiliyyah. You should seek out Kumait, horses with a white mark on the face and white feet, or red with a white mark on the face and white feet, or black with a white mark on the face and white feet.’”

It was narrated from ‘Umar that the Prophet -‘Amr (one of the narrators) said: “The Messenger of Allah- had divorced Hafsah, then he took her back.” And Allah knows best.

It was narrated that Salamah bin Nufail Al-Kindi said: “I was sitting with the Messenger of Allah when a man said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! The people have lost interest in horses and put down their weapons, and they say there is no Jihad, and that war has ended.’ The Messenger of Allah turned to face him and said: ‘They are lying, now the fighting is to come. There will always be a group among my Ummah who will fight for the truth, for whom Allah will cause some people to deviate, and grant them provision from them, until the Hour begins and until the promise of Allah comes. Goodness is tied to the forelocks of horses until the Day of Resurrection. It has been revealed to me that I am going to die and will not stay long, and you will follow me group after group, striking one another’s necks. And the place of safety for the believers is Ash-Sham.’”

It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said: “The Messenger of Allah said: ‘There is goodness tied to the forelocks of horses until the Day of Resurrection. And horses are of three types: Those that bring reward to man, those that are a means of protection for a man, and those that are a burden (of sin) for a man. As for those that bring reward, they are kept for the cause of Allah and for Jihad. No fodder enters their stomach but for everything that enters their stomachs, reward is written for him, even if he puts them out to pasture.’” And he quoted the Hadith.

It was narrated from Ibn ‘Umar that he divorced his wife when she was menstruating, and the Messenger of Allah told him to take her back.

Ibn Tawus narrated from his father that he heard ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar being asked about a man who divorced his wife when she was menstruating. He said: “Do you know ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar?” He said: “Yes.” He said: “He divorced his wife when she was menstruating, and ‘Umar went to the Prophet and told him about that. He ordered him to take her back until she became pure,” and I did not hear him adding anything to that.
