The word ‘Sheep’ is mentioned 3 times in 3 verses. Allamah Ismael bin Kaseer with the reference to Hafiz bin Jareer and Ibn Abi Hatim has written a detailed account of this event. A number of sheep ate up the whole garden of grapes and did not leave any leaves and bunches of fruits too. The owner of the garden and the master of the sheep appeared before Hazrat Dawood (Peace be upon him). Hazrat Dawood (Peace be upon him) gave his decision that the herd of the sheep should be given to the owner of the garden as compensation. Meanwhile, his son Hazrat Suleman (Peace be upon him) exclaimed that Hazrat Dawood (Peace be upon him) should not give such a decision. The father asked his son, what he had to tell them. Then Hazrat Suleman (Peace be upon him) said, that the sheep should be given to the owner of the garden in order to get from them his livelihood. He also said that the garden should be granted to the master of the sheep and he had to work in the garden till it is restored to its previous condition and the garden and the sheep should be returned to their rightful owners. (Ibn Kaseer : 2/156)
