আবূ হুরাইরাহ্ (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত যে, নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেন, আল্লাহ তা‘আলা এমন কোন নবী প্রেরণ করেননি, যিনি বকরী না চরিয়েছেন। তখন তাঁর সাহাবীগণ বলেন, আপনিও? তিনি বলেন, হ্যাঁ; আমি কয়েক কীরাতের (মুদ্রা) বিনিময়ে মক্কা্বাসীদের ছাগল চরাতাম। (আধুনিক প্রকাশনীঃ ২১০২, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশনঃ)
