English translation

3597. It was narrated from Abû Hurairah that the Prophet ﷺ used to dislike the Shikâl among horses. (Sahîh) Abû 'Abdur-Rahmân (An-Nasâ'i) said: The Shikâl among horses is when three of its feet have white markings and one of them does not, or three of them are not and one of them has white markings. And Ash-Shikâl (hobbled) is not used except in the case of feet, not hands.

Arabic text

3567 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي سَلْمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي زُرْعَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «أَنَّهُ كَرِهَ الشِّكَالَ مِنَ الْخَيْلِ»، قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ: " الشِّكَالُ مِنَ الْخَيْلِ: أَنْ تَكُونَ ثَلَاثُ قَوَائِمَ مُحَجَّلَةً وَوَاحِدَةٌ مُطْلَقَةً، أَوْ تَكُونَ الثَّلَاثَةُ مُطْلَقَةً وَرِجْلٌ مُحَجَّلَةً، وَلَيْسَ يَكُونُ الشِّكَالُ، إِلَّا فِي رِجْلٍ، وَلَا يَكُونُ فِي الْيَدِ "
