حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحِ بْنِ الْمُهَاجِرِ، أَخْبَرَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ شِمَاسَةَ، أَنَّ فُقَيْمًا اللَّخْمِيَّ، قَالَ لِعُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ: تَخْتَلِفُ بَيْنَ هَذَيْنِ الْغَرَضَيْنِ وَأَنْتَ كَبِيرٌ يَشُقُّ عَلَيْكَ، قَالَ عُقْبَةُ: لَوْلَا كَلَامٌ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمْ أُعَانِيهِ، قَالَ الْحَارِثُ: فَقُلْتُ لِابْنِ شَمَاسَةَ: وَمَا ذَاكَ؟ قَالَ: إِنَّهُ قَالَ: «مَنْ عَلِمَ الرَّمْيَ، ثُمَّ تَرَكَهُ، فَلَيْسَ مِنَّا» أَوْ «قَدْ عَصَى».

You frequent between these two targets and you are an old man, so you will be finding it very hard. 'Uqba رضی اللہ عنہ said: But for a thing I heard from the Prophet ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌), I would not strain myself. Harith (one of the narrators in the chain of transmitters) said: I asked Ibn Shamasa: What was that? He said that he (the Holy Prophet) said: Who learnt archery and then gave it up is not from us. or he has been guilty of disobedience (to Allah's Apostle).

It has been reported by 'Abdul-Rahman bin Shamasa that Fuqaim al-Lakhmi said to Uqba bin Amir رضی اللہ عنہ
