SHAFAQNA – It is narrated from Imam Sadeq (AS) who said: An animal has six rights on its owner: 1) do not load weights heavier than the animal is able to carry 2) do not talk to others for a long time whilst riding on the back of the animal (dismount the animal and then talk to others) 3) when arriving at any destination, first feed the animal 4) do not leave marks on the animal’s face with hot metal 5) do not beat the animal, because the animal praises God 6) and when the animal passes a water spring and places like that, take it near the water to drink [1].
