Hadith 1749
وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ " إِذَا وَجَدَ أَحَدًا مِنْ أَهْلِهِ يَلْعَبُ بِالنَّرْدِ ضَرَبَهُ وَكَسَرَهَا " .
Whenever Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) saw any of his household playing chess (or backgammon), he would beat him and break the chessboard.
