The answer

The indicates that every prophet herded sheep, including Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, who herded them for the people of Mecca for a few qirats. The works of the prophets are like the works of other human beings; some of them worked as blacksmiths, like David, peace be upon him, and some of them worked as carpenters, like Noah, peace be upon him. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, used to serve his family in his home, mend his clothes, repair his sandals, and do what men do in their homes.
