حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عُقْبَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سَبَّقَ بَيْنَ الْخَيْلِ وَفَضَّلَ الْقُرَّحَ فِي الْغَايَةِ

The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) used to hold a race between horses and kept the one in the fifth year at a long distance.

ইবনু ‘উমার (রাঃ) সূত্রে বর্ণিত। নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম ঘোড়াদৌড়ের প্রতিযোগিতা করাতেন এবং পাঁচ বছর বয়সে পদার্পণকারী ঘোড়ার জন্য দূরত্ব নির্দিষ্ট করতেন।

عبداللہ بن عمر رضی اللہ عنہما سے روایت ہے کہ رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے گھوڑ دوڑ کا مقابلہ کرایا اور پانچویں برس میں داخل ہونے والے گھوڑوں کی منزل دور مقرر کی۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Ahmad bin Hanbal], telah menceritakan kepada kami ['Uqbah bin Khalid], dari ['Ubaidullah] dari [Nafi'], dari [Ibnu Umar], bahwa Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam melombakan antar kuda. Dan beliau lebih memilih kuda yang masuk pada umur lima tahun

İbn Ömer (r.a.)'den rivayet edildiğine göre, Nebi (s.a.v.) atlar arasında (yapılan yarışlar için) ödül koymuş ve (en uzun mesafeli yarışma için de) beş yaşındaki atları tercih etmiştir.”

What it means

This Hadīth illustrates the permissibility of holding horse races, and setting for them different distances to cover according to the variable degrees of horses in terms of their strength and endurance. Horses vary in stamina, so they should be given suitable distances.
