- Who was the first prophet to ride a horse?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

All praise is due to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah, and upon his family and companions.

Ismail (peace be upon him) was the first to ride horses. Before him, they were wild, so he tamed them and taught his children how to do so. Thus, the Arabs became specialized in horsemanship, and this became a praiseworthy quality among them. And Allah knows best.
