Hadith.2488 - The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah (swt) be upon him and his family) was asked: "Which wealth is best?" Prophet (sw) replied: "A crop that its owner sows, tends to, and gives its due when it is harvested." He was asked: "O Messenger of Allah (swt), which wealth is best after crops?" Prophet (sw) replied: "A man with his sheep, following rain-fed pastures, who establishes prayer and pays zakat." He was asked: "O Messenger of Allah (swt), which wealth is best after sheep?" Prophet (sw) replied: "Cattle, which bring benefit in the morning and in the evening." He was asked: "O Messenger of Allah (swt), which wealth is best after cattle?" Prophet (sw) replied: "Date palms, which are steadfast in mud and provide food during drought. Indeed, palm trees are excellent. However, whoever sells them finds their price like ashes blown by a stormy wind atop a high mountain, unless he plants their replacement." He was asked: "O Messenger of Allah (swt), which wealth is best after date palms?" The Prophet remained silent. A man then asked: "What about camels, O Messenger of Allah (swt)?" Prophet (sw) replied: "In them is hardship, roughness, and toil. They are far removed (from human company), leaving in the morning and returning in the evening. Their benefit comes only from their left side. Indeed, they are not free from the wicked and the disobedient."
2489 - وَ قَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : «فِي اَلْغَنَمِ إِذَا أَقْبَلَتْ أَقْبَلَتْ وَ إِذَا أَدْبَرَتْ أَقْبَلَتْ وَ اَلْبَقَرُ إِذَا أَقْبَلَتْ أَقْبَلَتْ وَ إِذَا أَدْبَرَتْ أَدْبَرَتْ وَ اَلْإِبِلُ إِذَا أَقْبَلَتْ أَدْبَرَتْ وَ إِذَا أَدْبَرَتْ أَدْبَرَتْ».
Hadith.2489 - Imam (as) said: "Regarding sheep: when they come forward, they bring blessings, and when they go away, they still bring blessings. Regarding cattle: when they come forward, they bring blessings, and when they go away, they take blessings with them. Regarding camels: when they come forward, they take blessings away, and when they go away, they take even more blessings away."
