حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ السَّدُوسِيُّ نَا رَوْحُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ نَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ:
الْخَيْلُ ثَلَاثَةٌ: لِرَجُلٍ أَجْرٌ، وَلِرَجُلٍ سِتْرٌ، وَعَلَى رَجُلٍ وِزْرٌ؛ فَأَمَّا الَّتِي هِيَ لَهُ أَجْرٌ رَجُلٌ رَبَطَهَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَأَطَالَ لَهَا فِي مَرْجٍ أَوْ رَوْضَةٍ فَمَا أَصَابَتْ فِي طِيَلِهَا ذَلِكَ مِنَ الْمَرْجِ أَوِ الرَّوْضَةِ كَانَتْ لَهُ حَسَنَاتٌ، وَلَوْ أَنَّهَا قَطَعَتْ طِيَلَهَا ذَلِكَ فَاسْتَنَّتْ شَرَفًا أَوْ شَرَفَيْنِ كَانَتْ أَبْوَالُهَا وَأَرْوَاثُهَا حَسَنَاتٍ لَهُ، وَلَوْ أَنَّهَا مَرَّتْ بِنَهَرٍ فَشَرِبَتْ مِنْهُ كَانَتْ لَهُ حَسَنَاتٌ، فَهِيَ لَهُ أَجْرٌ. وَرَجُلٌ رَبَطَهَا تَعَفُّفًا وَلَمْ يَنْسَ حَقَّ اللهِ فِي ظُهُورِهَا، فَهِيَ لِذَلِكَ سِتْرٌ. وَرَجُلٌ رَبَطَهَا فَخْرًا وَرِيَاءً وَنِوَاءً عَلَى أَهْلِ الْإِسْلَامِ، فَهِيَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ وِزْرٌ

✧ Horses are three: for one man a reward, for another a cover, and upon another a burden. As for the one for which it is a reward: a man who keeps it tethered in the way of Allah and gives it a long tether in a meadow or garden; whatever it eats within the length of its tether in that meadow or garden counts as good deeds for him, and even if it breaks its tether and runs a hill or two, its urine and droppings are good deeds for him, and even if it passes by a river and drinks from it, that is good deeds for him—so it is a reward for him. Another man keeps it tethered out of self-restraint, not forgetting the right of Allah on its backs, so it is a cover for him. Another man keeps it tethered out of pride, ostentation, and enmity against the people of Islam, so it is a burden on him for that.
