Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 35738 — Horses and the good mentioned on them

Abu Amr al-Shaybani narrates from a man of the Ansar that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Horses are of three kinds. One is the horse kept for jihad: its price is a reward, riding it is a reward, lending it is a reward, and its fodder is a reward. The second is the horse kept for wagering: its price is a burden, its fodder is a burden, and riding it is a burden. And the third is the horse kept for filling the belly: it may well protect him from poverty, if Allah wills."
