قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ: «اَلْخَيْلُ مَعْقُودٌ بِنَوَاصِيهَا اَلْخَيْرُ إِلَى يَوْمِ اَلْقِيَامَةِ وَ اَلْمُنْفِقُ عَلَيْهَا فِي سَبِيلِ اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ كَالْبَاسِطِ يَدَهُ بِالصَّدَقَةِ لاَ يَقْبِضُهَا ». فإذا أعددت شيئا فأعده أقرح أرثم محجل الثلاثة، طلق اليمين، كميتا ثم أغر تسلم وتغنم.
The Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace and blessings of Allah (swt) be upon him and his family) said: "Goodness is tied to the forelocks of horses until the Day of Resurrection, and the one who spends on them in the way of Allah (swt), the Mighty and Glorious, is like someone extending their hand in charity without withdrawing it." Imam (a.s) further said: "If you prepare a horse, choose one that is lean and swift, with three white markings (legs), a free right side, a chestnut color, and a white blaze on its forehead. This will bring you safety and success."
