Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثنا مُحَمد بن عُثمَان قَال حَدَّثنا عُبَيد اللَّهِ عَن سُفيان عَن سِمَاك عَن عِكْرِمة عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِي اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ مَرَّ عَلَيَّ نَاسٌ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ يَرْمُونَ حَمَامَةً فَقَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيه وَسَلَّم أَنْ يَتَّخِذَ الرُّوحَ غَرَضًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيه وَسَلَّم أَنْ يَتَّخِذَ الرُّوحَ غَرَضًا
English Translation
Muhammad ibn Uthman narrated to us, he said: Ubayd Allah narrated to us, from Sufyan, from Simak, from Ikrimah, from Ibn Abbas (may Allah be well pleased with them both), who said: Some people from the Ansar passed by me shooting at a pigeon, so he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) prohibited taking any living creature as a target.
