Shaykh Muḥammad b. Yaʿqūb al-Kulaynī · The Virtue of Maintaining Horses, Racing and Sharp Shooting Contests
13- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) ارْكَبُوا وَارْمُوا وَإِنْ تَرْمُوا أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ تَرْكَبُوا ثُمَّ قَالَ كُلُّ لَهْوِ الْمُؤْمِنِ بَاطِلٌ إِلا فِي ثَلاثٍ فِي تَأْدِيبِهِ الْفَرَسَ وَرَمْيِهِ عَنْ قَوْسِهِ وَمُلاعَبَتِهِ امْرَأَتَهُ فَإِنَّهُنَّ حَقٌّ أَلا إِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَيُدْخِلُ فِي السَّهْمِ الْوَاحِدِ الثَّلاثَةَ الْجَنَّةَ عَامِلَ الْخَشَبَةِ وَالْمُقَوِّيَ بِهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَالرَّامِيَ بِهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ.
13. Muhammad has narrated from Muhammad ibn Ahmad from Ali ibn ‘Isma’il in a marfu’ manner the following: “He (the Imam) (a.s.), has said that the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, has said, ‘You should learn horse riding and sharp-shooting. I like your learning sharp-shooting more than your horse riding.’ He then said, ‘All playing of believers’ is falsehood except three things: horse training, sharp-shooting from his bow and playing with his wife because they are right. However, Allah, the most Majestic, the most Glorious, with the arrow sends three to paradise: one who makes the arrow, one who provides support with it for the cause of Allah and one who shoots it for the cause of Allah.’”
