When Allah willed to create the horse, he said to the South Wind, "I will that a creature should proceed from thee.  Condense thyself."  And the wind condensed itself.

Then came the Angel Gabriel saying, "I have called thee horse.  I have attached good fortune to the hair that falls between thine eyes.  Thou shall be the lord of all other animals, and men shall follow thee wheresoever thou goest.  Good for pursuit as for flight, thou shall fly without wings and upon thy back shall riches repose and through thy means shall wealth come."

~ Bedouin Legend

(One of many interpretations of the text originally attributed to the Koran)
