There will be great benefit in the forelock of the horses until the Day of judgment.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ الْخَيْلُ فِي نَوَاصِيهَا الْخَيْرُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ
The same tradition has been handed down through a different chain of transmitters.
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ مَالِكٍ عَنْ نَافِعٍ
I saw that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was twisting the forelock of a horse with his fingers and he was saying: (A great) benefit. i. e. reward (for rearing them for Jihad) and spoils of war, has been tied to the forelocks of horses until the Day of Judgment.
رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَلْوِي نَاصِيَةَ فَرَسٍ بِإِصْبَعِهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ الْخَيْلُ مَعْقُودٌ بِنَوَاصِيهَا الْخَيْرُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ الأَجْرُ وَالْغَنِيمَةُ
The above tradition has also been narrated on the authority of Yunus through a different chain of transmitters.
عَنْ يُونُسَ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ مِثْلَهُ
Great good is attached to the forelock of the horses until the Day of Judgment.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْخَيْلُ مَعْقُودٌ فِي نَوَاصِيهَا الْخَيْرُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ الأَجْرُ وَالْمَغْنَمُ
Good is tied to the forelock of the horses. It Was said to him: Messenger of Allah, why is it so? He (the Prophet said): For reward and booty until the Day of Judgment.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْخَيْرُ مَعْقُوصٌ بِنَوَاصِي الْخَيْلِ قَالَ فَقِيلَ لَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ بِمَ ذَاكَ قَالَ الأَجْرُ وَالْمَغْنَمُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ
This hadith has been narrated with the same chain of transmitters with the difference that here instead of" Urwat al-Bariqi" there is" Urwa b. ja'd."
أَنَّهُ قَالَ عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الْجَعْدِ
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرِ الأَجْرَ وَالْمَغْنَمَ وَفِي حَدِيثِ سُفْيَانَ سَمِعَ عُرْوَةَ الْبَارِقِيَّ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ
A version of the tradition transmitted on the authority of 'Urwa b. al-ja'd does not mention" reward and booty".
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِهَذَا وَلَمْ يَذْكُرِ الأَجْرَ وَالْمَغْنَمَ
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْبَرَكَةُ فِي نَوَاصِي الْخَيْلِ
A hadith like this has been narrated on the authority of Anas through another chain of transmitters.
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِمِثْلِهِ
