حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي قَالَ، سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى بْنَ أَيُّوبَ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ عُلَىِّ بْنِ رَبَاحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ الأَنْصَارِيِّ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ خَيْرُ الْخَيْلِ الأَدْهَمُ الأَقْرَحُ الْمُحَجَّلُ الأَرْثَمُ طَلْقُ الْيَدِ الْيُمْنَى فَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ أَدْهَمَ فَكُمَيْتٌ عَلَى هَذِهِ الشِّيَةِ ‏"‏ .

Narrator: Abu Qatadah Al-Ansari

English translation
It was narrated from Abu Qatadah Al-Ansari that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “The best of horses are those that are deep black, with a blaze on the forehead, white marks on the legs and white nose and upper lip, and with no whiteness on the right foreleg. If not deep-black, then reddish-brown, with these markings.”
বাংলা অনুবাদ
। আবূ কাতাদা আল-আনসারী (রাঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেনঃ কালো রং-এর ঘোড়া সর্বোত্তম যার কপাল ও উপরের ওষ্ঠ সাদা। অতঃপর যে ঘোড়ার ডান পা ও কপাল ব্যতীত অবশিষ্ট পান্ডলো সাদা। যদি কালো ঘোড়া না পাওয়া যায় তবে লাল-কালো মিশ্রিত বর্ণের ঘোড়া উত্তম।
