It is narrated from Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, admits into Paradise because of a single arrow the one who makes it while intending good in making it, and also the one who shoots it and the one who gifts it." And he said: "Practise archery and ride, and that you practise archery is more beloved to me than that you ride. Everything with which a man amuses himself is futile, except training his horse, shooting with his bow, and playing with his wife."
