Sahih Muslim 1919
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحِ بْنِ الْمُهَاجِرِ، أَخْبَرَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ شَمَاسَةَ، أَنَّ فُقَيْمًا اللَّخْمِيَّ، قَالَ لِعُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ تَخْتَلِفُ بَيْنَ هَذَيْنِ الْغَرَضَيْنِ وَأَنْتَ كَبِيرٌ يَشُقُّ عَلَيْكَ . قَالَ عُقْبَةُ لَوْلاَ كَلاَمٌ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لَمْ أُعَانِهِ . قَالَ الْحَارِثُ فَقُلْتُ لاِبْنِ شُمَاسَةَ وَمَا ذَاكَ قَالَ إِنَّهُ قَالَ " مَنْ عَلِمَ الرَّمْىَ ثُمَّ تَرَكَهُ فَلَيْسَ مِنَّا أَوْ قَدْ عَصَى " .
Muhammad ibn Rumh ibn al-Muhajir informed us: al-Layth informed us, from al-Harith ibn Yaqqub, from Abd al-Rahman ibn Shumasah, that Fuqaym al-Lakhmi said to Uqbah ibn Amir: “You keep going between these two targets, although you are an old man and it is hard on you.” Uqbah said: “Were it not for something I heard from the Messenger of Allah, I would not exert myself so.” Al-Harith said: I asked Ibn Shumasah, “What was that?” He said that Uqbah reported the Prophet saying: “Whoever learned archery and then gave it up is not one of us, or has disobeyed.”
