اُردوEn
عَنْ مَعْقَلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ لَمْ يَكُنْ شَيْءٌ أَحَبَّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنَ الْخَيْلِ ثُمَّ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ غَفْرًا لَا بَلِ النِّسَاءُ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ma'qil bin Yasar (may Allah be pleased with him) that there is nothing which was more beloved to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) than horses. Then Sayyiduna Ma'qil (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Allah! Forgive me, no, rather women were most beloved to him.
