I taught some persons of the people of Suffah writing and the Qur'an. A man of them presented to me a bow. I said: It cannot be reckoned property; may I shoot with it in Allah's path? I must come to the Apostle of of Allah ﷺ and ask him (about it). So I came to him and said : Messenger of Allah ﷺ, one of those whom I have been teaching writing and the Qur'an has presented me a bow, and as it cannot be reckoned property, may I shoot with it in Allah's path? He said: If you want to have a necklace of fire on you, accept it. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3416)   

عَلَّمْتُ نَاسًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الصُّفَّةِ الْكِتَابَ وَالْقُرْآنَ فَأَهْدَى إِلِيَّ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ قَوْسًا فَقُلْتُ لَيْسَتْ بِمَالٍ وَأَرْمِي عَنْهَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ ﷻ لَآتِيَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَلَأَسْأَلَنَّهُ فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَهْدَى رَجُلٌ إِلِيَّ قَوْسًا مِمَّنْ كُنْتُ أُعَلِّمُ الْكِتَابَ وَالْقُرْآنَ وَلَيْسَتْ بِمَالٍ وَأَرْمِي عَنْهَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ قَالَ إِنْ كُنْتَ تُحِبُّ أَنْ تُطَوَّقَ بِطَوْقٍ مِنْ نَارٍ فَاقْبَلْهَا  

[Machine] From the Prophet ﷺ , if it pleases you to be surrounded by a necklace of fire, accept it from the one who taught writing.  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِنْ سَرَّكَ أَنْ تُطَوَّقَ طَوْقًا مِنْ نَارٍ فَاقْبَلْهَا فِي الَّذِي عَلَّمَ الْكِتَابَةَ  

[Machine] From Ubada As-Samit regarding this report and the first (part), I asked, "What do you see in it, O Messenger of Allah?" He said, "A burning coal between your shoulders, either you carry it or bear it." And so (it is).  

عَنْ عُبَادَةَ الصَّامِتِ نَحْوَ هَذَا الْخَبَرِ وَالْأَوَّلُ أَتَمُّ فَقُلْتُ مَا تَرَى فِيهَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ فَقَالَ جَمْرَةٌ بَيْنَ كَتِفَيْكَ تَقَلَّدْتَهَا أَوْ تَعَلَّقْتَهَا وَكَذَلِكَ  

[Machine] If you take it, take it as a bow from the fire and it is narrated from another face that is weak from Abu Darda.  

إِنْ أَخَذْتَهَا فَخُذْ بِهَا قَوْسًا مِنَ النَّارِ وَرُوِيَ مِنْ وَجْهٍ آخَرَ ضَعِيفٍ عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ  

[Machine] The Prophet of Allah ﷺ said: "Whoever takes up a bow in order to teach the Quran, Allah will make him resemble a bow made of fire."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ أَخَذَ قَوْسًا عَلَى تَعْلِيمِ الْقُرْآنِ قَلَّدَهُ اللهُ قَوْسًا مِنْ نَارٍ  

[Machine] About the Prophet (PBUH): "Whoever undertakes the bow (i.e., teaching) of Quran without a foundation."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مَنْ تَقَلَّدَ قَوْسًا عَلَى تَعْلِيمِ الْقُرْآنِ لَيْسَ لَهُ أَصْلٌ
