Hadith 898
Hadith.2465 - Isma‘il ibn Abi Ziyad narrated with his chain of transmission that the
Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace and blessings of Allah (swt) be upon him and his family) said: "A mount has certain rights upon its owner: - Begin by feeding it when you dismount. - Offer it water when you pass by a source. - Do not strike its face, for it glorifies its Lord (azj) with praise. - Do not remain seated on its back except in the way of Allah (swt), the Mighty and Glorious. - Do not burden it beyond its capacity. Do not compel it to walk more than it can endure."
2465 - رَوَى إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي زِيَادٍ بِإِسْنَادِهِ قَالَ
قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ : «لِلدَّابَّةِ عَلَى صَاحِبِهَا خِصَالٌ يَبْدَأُ بِعَلْفِهَا إِذَا نَزَلَ وَ يَعْرِضُ عَلَيْهَا اَلْمَاءَ إِذَا مَرَّ بِهِ وَ لاَ يَضْرِبُ وَجْهَهَا فَإِنَّهَا تُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِ رَبِّهَا وَ لاَ يَقِفُ عَلَى ظَهْرِهَا إِلاَّ فِي سَبِيلِ اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ لاَ يُحَمِّلُهَا فَوْقَ طَاقَتِهَا وَ لاَ يُكَلِّفُهَا مِنَ اَلْمَشْيِ إِلاَّ مَا تُطِيقُ».
