Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّ
بِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ مَنْ أَدْخَلَ فَرَسًا بَيْنَ فَرَسَيْنِ وَهُوَ لَا يَأْمَنُ أَنْ يَسْبِقَ فَلَا بَأْسَ بِهِ وَمَنْ أَدْخَلَ فَرَسًا بَيْنَ فَرَسَيْنِ قَدْ أَمِنَ أَنْ يَسْبِقَ فَهُوَ قِمَارٌ

Yazid narrated to us, Sufyan ibn Husayn informed us, from al-Zuhri, from Sa'id ibn al-Musayyab, from Abu Hurayrah (رضي الله عنه), from the Prophet ﷺ who said: 'Whoever enters a horse between two horses (in a race) while not knowing whether his horse will win, that is not gambling. And whoever enters a horse between two horses knowing that his horse will win, that is gambling.'
