Abu al-Mughira narrated to us, Muhammad ibn al-Muhajir narrated to us, Aqil ibn Shabib narrated to us, from Abu Wahb al-Kala'i, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said — and he mentioned its meaning. Muhammad said: And I do not know whether he began with the kumayt or with the adhham. He said: And they asked him, "Why did he prefer the ashqar?" He said: Because the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, sent out a detachment, and the first to return with victory was the owner of the ashqar.
