The Virtue of Maintaining Horses, Racing and Sharp Shooting Contests

12- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ مُوسَى عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ طَرِيفٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) فِي قَوْلِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَأَعِدُّوا لَهُمْ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ مِنْ قُوَّةٍ وَمِنْ رِباطِ الْخَيْلِ قَالَ الرَّمْيُ.
12. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from ‘Imran ibn Musa‘ from al-Hassan ibn Tarif from ‘Abd Allah ibn al-Mughirah in a marfu’ manner the following: “About the words of Allah, ‘Prepare and maintain whatever power and horses you can. . . .’ (8:60) the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, has said, “It is a reference to sharp-shooting.”
