Urwah al-Bariqi

Urwah Ibn Abi Al-Ja"d Al-Bariq (Arabic: عروة البارقي), was a companion of Muhammad.

Narrated: Urwa said that the Messenger of Allah said "Good will remain (as a permanent quality) in the forelocks of horses (meant for Jihad) till the Day of Resurrection, for they bring about a reward (in the Hereafter) or booty (in this world).

Muhammad gave him a dinar to buy a sacrificial animal or a sheep.

So he invoked a blessing on him in his business dealing, and he was such that if had he bought dust he would have made a profit from it.
