حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ جَابِرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَّامٍ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ مَعَ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ، وَكَانَ رَجُلًا يُحِبُّ الرَّمْيَ، إِذَا خَرَجَ خَرَجَ بِي مَعَهُ، فَدَعَانِي يَوْمًا، فَأَبْطَأْتُ عَلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ: تَعَالَ أَقُولُ لَكَ مَا قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَا حَدَّثَنِي، سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " إِنَّ اللهَ يُدْخِلُ بِالسَّهْمِ الْوَاحِدِ ثَلَاثَةَ نَفَرٍ الْجَنَّةَ: صَانِعَهُ الْمُحْتَسِبَ فِي صَنَعْتِهِ الْخَيْرَ، وَالرَّامِيَ بِهِ، وَمُنْبِلَهُ "، وَقَالَ: " ارْمُوا وَارْكَبُوا، وَلَأَنْ تَرْمُوا أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ تَرْكَبُوا "، " وَلَيْسَ مِنَ اللهْوِ إِلَّا ثَلَاثٌ: تَأْدِيبُ الرَّجُلِ فَرَسَهُ، وَمُلَاعَبَتُهُ، ، امْرَأَتَهُ، وَرَمْيُهُ بِقَوْسِهِ، وَمَنْ تَرَكَ الرَّمْيَ بَعْدَمَا عُلِّمَهُ رَغْبَةً عَنْهُ، فَإِنَّهَا نِعْمَةٌ تَرَكَهَا (١) " (٢)،
Translation
English translation
Khalid bin Zaid says that Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) used to come to me and say, "Come with us, let us practice archery." One day I was feeling heavy (unwell), so he said, "I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say that Allah Almighty will admit three people into Paradise because of a single arrow: one who made it with a good intention, the second who assisted in it, and the third who shot it. Therefore, practice archery and horseback riding, and to me, archery is more preferable than horseback riding. And everything that makes a person heedless is falsehood, except for a man's bow and arrows, his care for his horse, and his playful interaction with his wife, for these things are true. And whoever learns the art of archery and then forgets it, he has shown ingratitude to the one who taught him."
