حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ الْقُرَشِيُّ ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي أُحَيْحَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مَا بَعَثَ اللَّهُ نَبِيًّا إِلَّا رَاعِيَ غَنَمٍ " ، قَالَ لَهُ أَصْحَابُهُ : وَأَنْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : " وَأَنَا كُنْتُ أَرْعَاهَا لِأَهْلِ مَكَّةَ بِالْقَرَارِيطِ " ، قَالَ سُوَيْدٌ : يَعْنِي كُلَّ شَاةٍ بِقِيرَاطٍ .
´It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:` "Allah has not sent any Prophet but he was a shepherd." His Companions said to him: "Even you, O Messenger of Allah?" He said: "Even me I used to tend the sheep of the people of Makkah for a few Qirats." (Sahih)(One of the narrators) Suwaid said: " Meaning one Qirat for every sheep."
