Sharhabeel bin Muslim Khaulani says: Ruh bin Zinba’ came to meet Sayyiduna Tamim Dari (may Allah be pleased with him) and found him in the state that he was cleaning barley for his horse, and his wife and children were sitting around him. Ruh said: Is there not among these people a servant who could suffice you in this task? Sayyiduna Tamim (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Yes, of course, but the real matter is that I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say:“When a Muslim man cleans barley for his horse and feeds it to him, then for every single grain, a good deed is written for him.”
