"pride and arrogance are among the people of camels, and tranquility and dignity are among the people of sheep," and the Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) said: "Mūsá (peace be upon him) was sent while he was tending sheep for his family, and I was sent while I was tending sheep for my family at Jiyād."
