Animals in the Qur’an: Horse (خَيْلٌ)

Children learn about horses’ strength, speed and companionship. The Qur’an describes horses as adornment and transport and Surah al-‘Adiyat swears by racing horses. Hadiths mention horses in battle and Paradise. The lesson builds awareness of moderation in loving worldly beauty, while valuing horses as blessings and tools for service to Allah.
