I gave a Google. It's seen as a taboo thing in many Middle Eastern societies based on a verse from Muhammad which curses the private parts of women who touch saddles. Curiously, this line has been debunked and the Quran literally mentions nothing about women riding horses.

    Wait, sorry, I'm trying to understand. It's "based on a verse from Muhammad" but it's not in the Quran? Where is the verse then? And why does not being in the Quran invalidate it if it's by Muhammad?
