It is narrated from Sayyiduna Salamah bin Akwa’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by a group from the tribe of Aslam who were practicing archery in the market. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Banu Isma’il! Keep practicing archery, for your forefather (Sayyiduna Isma’il, peace be upon him) was an archer. Practice archery, and I will join such-and-such group." Upon this, the other party withdrew their hands. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Shoot your arrows." They said, "O Messenger of Allah! How can we shoot when you are with them?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Shoot your arrows, for I am with all of you."
