Sayvidina Abdullah ibn Abdur Rahman ibn Abu Husayn reported that Allah s Messenger said, “Indeed, Allah will admit to paradise three men because of one arrow; The maker who has a good motive in his mind while making it, the shooter and the one who hands it to him. He said further, Shoot and ride. And, that you shoot is dearer to me than that you ride. Every thing with which a Muslim man amuses himself is void except his shooting with a how, his training of his horse and his playing with his wife for they are among the right.’
[Ibn e Majah 2811]
