Mukhtasar Muslim (Abridged) 1105 — Blessing remains in horses’

Sayyiduna Jarir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) rubbing the forelock of a horse with his finger and saying: Blessing is tied to the forelocks of horses until the Day of Resurrection, that is, reward and spoils (goodness of both this world and the Hereafter).
