Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بِشْرٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، قَالَ: خَرَجْتُ مَعَ ابْنِ عُمَرَ مِنْ مَنْزِلِهِ، فَمَرَرْنَا بِفِتْيَانٍ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ قَدْ نَصَبُوا طَيْرًا وَهُمْ يَرْمُونَهُ، وَقَدْ جَعَلُوا لِصَاحِبِ الطَّيْرِ كُلَّ خَاطِئَةٍ مِنْ نَبْلِهِمْ، فَلَمَّا رَأَوْا ابْنَ عُمَرَ تَفَرَّقُوا، فَقَالَ: ابْنُ عُمَرَ مَنْ فَعَلَ هَذَا؟ لَعَنَ اللهُ مَنْ فَعَلَ هَذَا إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " لَعَنَ اللهُ مَنِ اتَّخَذَ شَيْئًا فِيهِ الرُّوحُ غَرَضًا " (١)،

Translation

English translation

Saeed bin Jubair says that once I went out with Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) from his house on one of the roads of Madinah. We passed by some young men of the Quraysh who had tied a live bird and were aiming at it, and had told the owner of the bird that whoever's arrow misses, it will be yours. At this, Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) became angry and said, "Who is doing this?" Immediately, all the young men scattered to the right and left. Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) said: "The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) cursed the person who ties a living creature and makes it a target."
