I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say-and he was delivering a sermon from the pulpit: Prepare to meet them with as much strength as you can afford. Beware, strength consists in archery. Beware, strength consists in archery. Beware, strength consists in archery.

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ يَقُولُ وَأَعِدُّوا لَهُمْ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ مِنْ قُوَّةٍ أَلاَ إِنَّ الْقُوَّةَ الرَّمْىُ أَلاَ إِنَّ الْقُوَّةَ الرَّمْىُ أَلاَ إِنَّ الْقُوَّةَ الرَّمْىُ

‘Uqabah bin Amir Al Juhani said “I heard the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ recite when he was on the pulpit “Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power. Beware, strength is shooting, beware strength is shooting, beware strength is shooting.”

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ يَقُولُ { وَأَعِدُّوا لَهُمْ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ مِنْ قُوَّةٍ } أَلاَ إِنَّ الْقُوَّةَ الرَّمْىُ أَلاَ إِنَّ الْقُوَّةَ الرَّمْىُ أَلاَ إِنَّ الْقُوَّةَ الرَّمْىُ

“I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ reciting on the pulpit: ‘And make ready against them all you can of power.’[8:60] (And saying that) three times – ‘Power means shooting.”

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ {وَأَعِدُّوا لَهُمْ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ مِنْ قُوَّةٍ} أَلاَ وَإِنَّ الْقُوَّةَ الرَّمْىُ ثَلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ

[AI] He recited this verse: "And prepare against them whatever power you can and horses tied at the frontier" [Surah Al-Anfal 60]. Surely, the power lies in hurling.

أَنَّهُ تَلَا هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {وَأَعِدُّوا لَهُمْ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ مِنْ قُوَّةٍ} [الأنفال 60] أَلَا إِنَّ الْقُوَّةَ الرَّمْيُ

‘Uqabah bin Amir Al Juhani said “I heard the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ recite when he was on the pulpit “Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power. Beware, strength is shooting, beware strength is shooting, beware strength is shooting.” (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2514)

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ {وَأَعِدُّوا لَهُمْ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ مِنْ قُوَّةٍ} [الأنفال 60] أَلَا إِنَّ الْقُوَّةَ الرَّمْيُ أَلَا إِنَّ الْقُوَّةَ الرَّمْيُ أَلَا إِنَّ الْقُوَّةَ الرَّمْيُ

[AI] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Prepare for them whatever power you can muster" [Surah Al-Anfal 8:60]. Surely, power lies in archery.

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ {وَأَعِدُّوا لَهُمْ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ مِنْ قُوَّةٍ} [الأنفال 60] أَلَا إِنَّ الْقُوَّةَ الرَّمْيَ

‘Uqabah bin Amir Al Juhani said “I heard the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ recite when he was on the pulpit “Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power. Beware, strength is shooting, beware strength is shooting, beware strength is shooting.” (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2514)

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «وَأَعِدُّوا لَهُمْ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ مِنْ قُوَّةٍ أَلَا إِنَّ الْقُوَّةَ الرَّمْيُ أَلَا إِنَّ الْقُوَّةَ الرَّمْيُ أَلَا إِنَّ الْقُوَّةَ الرَّمْيُ»

[AI] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the pulpit saying, "Prepare for them whatever power you are able." Know that the power is in archery, know that the power is in archery.

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ {وَأَعِدُّوا لَهُمْ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ مِنْ قُوَّةٍ} أَلَا وَإِنَّ الْقُوَّةَ الرَّمْيُ أَلَا وَإِنَّ الْقُوَّةَ الرَّمْيُ

‘Uqabah bin Amir Al Juhani said “I heard the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ recite when he was on the pulpit “Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power. Beware, strength is shooting, beware strength is shooting, beware strength is shooting.” (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2514)
