Encouragement of archery.
‘It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdur Rahman bin Shumasah that Faqim Lakhmi said to Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him):“In this old age, you go to and from these two targets; it must be difficult for you.”Sayyiduna Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with him) said:“If I had not heard one thing from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), I would not have borne this hardship.”Harith said:“I asked Ibn Shumasah, ‘What was that thing?’ He said: ‘The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever learns archery and then abandons it, he is not from us, or he is sinful.’”
