Abdullah b. al-Mughaffal saw a person from amongst his companions throwing small pebbles, whereupon he said: Don't throw pebbles for Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not like it, or he forbade flinging of pebbles since neither the game is taken thereby, nor an enemy defeated. but it may break a tooth or put out an eye. He, afterwards, again saw him flinging pebbles, and said to him: I inform you that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not approve or he forbade flinging of pebbles, but if I see you again flinging pebbles. I will not speak with you. (Using translation from Muslim 1954a)

رَأَى رَجُلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ يَخْذِفُ فَقَالَ لَا تَخْذِفْ فَإِنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَكْرَهُ الْخَذْفَ أَوْ قَالَ يَنْهَى عَنْهُ كَهْمَسٌ يَقُولُ ذَلِكَ فَإِنَّهَا لَا يُنْكَأُ بِهَا عَدُوٌّ وَلَا يُصَادُ بِهَا صَيْدٌ وَلَكِنَّهَا تَفْقَأُ الْعَيْنَ وَتَكْسِرُ السِّنَّ ثُمَّ رَآهُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ يَخْذِفُ فَقَالَ أُخْبِرُكَ أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَنْهَى عَنِ الْخَذْفِ أَوْ يَكْرَهُهُ ثُمَّ أَرَاكَ تَخْذِفُ لَا أُكَلِّمُكَ كَلِمَةً كَذَا وَكَذَا

that he saw a man throwing stones with two fingers (at something) and said to him, "Do not throw stones, for Messenger of Allah ﷺ has forbidden throwing stones, or he used to dislike it." ʿAbdullah added: Throwing stones will neither hunt the game, nor kill (or hurt) an enemy, but it may break a tooth or gouge out an eye." Afterwards ʿAbdullah once again saw the man throwing stones. He said to him, "I tell you that Messenger of Allah ﷺ has forbidden or disliked the throwing the stones (in such a way), yet you are throwing stones! I shall not talk to you for such-and-such a period."

[Machine] Abdullah ibn Mughaffal saw a man from his companions throwing stones, so he said to him: "Do not throw stones, for indeed the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to forbid it or dislike it.

Then he saw him afterwards still throwing stones, so he said to him: "Did I not inform you that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to forbid it, and here I see you still throwing stones? By Allah, I will never speak to you again."
