أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ، عَنِ ابْنِ جَابِرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلاَّمٍ الأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يُدْخِلُ ثَلاَثَةَ نَفَرٍ الْجَنَّةَ بِالسَّهْمِ الْوَاحِدِ صَانِعَهُ يَحْتَسِبُ فِي صُنْعِهِ الْخَيْرَ وَالرَّامِيَ بِهِ وَمُنَبِّلَهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Amr ibn Uthman ibn Said informed us, from al-Walid, from Ibn Jabir, from Abu Sallam al-Aswad, from Khalid ibn Yazid, from Uqbah ibn Amir, from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), who said: Allah, Mighty and Majestic, will admit three people to Paradise by means of a single arrow: the one who makes it, seeking good through its making; the one who shoots it; and the one who hands it to the archer.

Translation notes

  • The final role is المُنَبِّل, the person who supplies or passes arrows to the shooter.
