حَدَّثَنَا آدَمُ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عُقْبَةَ بْنَ صُهْبَانَ الأَزْدِيَّ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُغَفَّلٍ الْمُزَنِيِّ

قَالَ نَهَى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْخَذْفِ وَقَالَ: «إِنَّهُ لَا يَقْتُلُ الصَّيْدَ، وَلَا يَنْكَأُ الْعَدُوَّ، وَإِنَّهُ يَفْقَأُ الْعَيْنَ، وَيَكْسِرُ السِّنَّ»

The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) forbade the throwing of stones (with the thumb and the index or middle finger), and said “It neither hunts a game nor kills (or hurts) an enemy, but it gouges out an eye or breaks a tooth.”

‘আবদুল্লাহ ইবনু মুগাফফাল মুযানী (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম ঢিল ছুঁড়তে নিষেধ করেছেন। আর বলেছেনঃ এটা শিকার মারতে পারে না এবং শত্রুকেও আহত করতে পারে না বরং কারো চোখ ফুঁড়ে দিতে পারে আবার কোন লোকের দাঁত ভেঙ্গে দিতে পারে। [৪৮৪১]

ہم سے آدم بن ابی ایاس نے بیان کیا، کہا ہم سے شعبہ نے بیان کیا، ان سے قتادہ نے، انہوں نے عقبہ بن صہبان ازدی سے سنا، وہ عبداللہ بن مغفل مزنی سے نقل کرتے تھے کہ نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے کنکری پھینکنے سے منع کیا تھا اور فرمایا تھا کہ وہ نہ شکار مار سکتی ہے اور نہ دشمن کو کوئی نقصان پہنچا سکتی ہے، البتہ آنکھ پھوڑ سکتی ہے اور دانت توڑ سکتی ہے۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Adam] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Syu'bah] dari [Qatadah] dia berkata; saya mendengar ['Uqbah bin Shahban Al Azdi] bercerita dari [Abdullah bin Mughaffal Al Muzanni] dia berkata; Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam melarang melempar (berburu binatang dengan melempar batu). Lalu beliau bersabda: "Karena hal itu tidak akan mematikan buruan dan tidak pula mengalahkan musuh, akan tetapi hal itu hanya bisa mematahkan gigi dan membutakan mata

Abdullah İbn Muğaffel el-Müzeni'den, dedi ki: "Nebi Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem küçük çakıl taşı atmayı nehyederek: Çünkü bu ne av hayvanını öldürür, ne düşmanı yaralar. Ama o hiç şüphesiz gözü çıkartır ve dişi kırar, buyurdu." AÇIKLAMA : "Parmakla küçük taş atmanın nehyedilmesi." Buna dair açıklamalar ve hadisin şerhi, Sayd ve'z-zebaih bölümünde (5479 nolu hadiste) geçmiş bulunmaktadır

What it means

‘Abdullāh ibn Mughaffal (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade throwing stones and said: "It does not kill the quarry." Another narration reads: "It does not hunt the game" - "or harm the enemy. Instead, it can gouge out an eye or break a tooth."

Scholars said that the prohibited “throwing”, which is intended in this Hadīth, is the kind of throwing where one places a pebble between the right index finger and the left index finger or between the index finger and thumb, then placing the pebble on the thumb and flicking it with the index finger or placing it on the index finger and flicking it with the thumb.

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade this and justified it by saying that it can gouge out an eye or break a tooth if it hits someone and it cannot catch the quarry, because it is not strong enough, and it cannot ward off the enemy, because the enemy is repulsed by arrows, not by small pebbles. Then, one of his relatives came out and started throwing pebbles.

So, he prohibited him from doing so and told him that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade that. Then, he saw him doing that again, and he said: "I told you that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) forbade throwing stones, and you are still doing it! I shall never speak to you again."

He disassociated from him because he did something that violated a prohibition of the Prophet, may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him).
