Description:
My favorite story of how the horse came to be comes from the Koran and who but the Arabs would know more about the noble horse better than they!
A Bedouin story states that Allah created the Arabian horse from the four winds; spirit from the North, strength from the South, speed from the East, and intelligence from the West. While doing so, he exclaimed, "I create thee, Oh Arabian. To thy forelock, I bind Victory in battle. On thy back, I set a rich spoil and a Treasure in thy loins. I establish thee as one of the Glories of the Earth... I give thee flight without wings." "I call you Horse; I make you Arabian and I give you the chestnut color; I have hung happiness from the forelock which hangs between your eyes; you shall be the Lord of all animals. Men shall follow you wherever you go; you shall be as good for flight as for pursuit; riches shall be on your back and fortune shall come through your meditation."
