[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Shoot and ride. I prefer that you shoot rather than ride. Everything that distracts a man from his duties is futile, except shooting with a bow, training his horse, or playing with his spouse, for these are from the truth. And whoever gives up shooting after having knowledge of it, he has disbelieved in what he knew. This is mentioned in the book of Ibn Yazid. And another person, Abdullah ibn Zaid, said..."
قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ ارْمُوا وَارْكَبُوا وَأَنْ تَرْمُوا أَحَبُّ إِلِيَّ مِنْ أَنْ تَرْكَبُوا وَكُلُّ شَيْءٍ يَلْهُوَ بِهِ الرَّجُلُ بَاطِلٌ إِلَّا رَمْيَ الرَّجُلِ بِقَوْسِهِ أَوْ تَأْدِيبَهُ فَرَسَهُ أَوْ مُلَاعَبَتَهُ امْرَأَتَهُ فَإِنَّهُنَّ مِنَ الْحَقِّ وَمَنْ تَرَكَ الرَّمْيَ بَعْدَ مَا عَلِمَهُ فَقَدْ كَفَرَ الَّذِي عَلِمَهُ كَذَا فِي كِتَابِ ابْنِ يَزِيدَ وَقَالَ غَيْرُهُ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ زَيْدٍ
