Is it recommended for a person to tend sheep because the prophets did so?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is it prescribed for one to tend sheep, going to a shepherd, seeing that some of the prophets did so?

The Shaykh : No, it is not recommended, because for the prophets, this was among the things Allah made easy for them. The Messenger did not command tending sheep, nor did he tend sheep himself after the prophethood. Yes.
