He, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Family, also disliked shikal in horses. It means that three standing legs of a horse have anklets and that one is free. It stems from shikal, that which a horse is being decorated with. It was likened to it because shikal is only performed in three standing legs while the three are free and one has anklets. Shikal is not performed except in the foot, and it is not performed to a hand.
