وَعَنْ عَقَبَةِ بْنُ عَامِرٍ رضى الله عنه
«: سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ عَلَى اَلْمِنْبَرِ يَقْرَأُ: ﴿ وَأَعِدُّوا لَهُمْ مَا اِسْتَطَعْتُمْ مِنْ قُوَّةٍ ﴾ «أَلَا إِنَّ اَلْقُوَّةَ اَلرَّمْيُ، أَلَا إِنَّ اَلْقُوَّةَ اَلرَّمْيُ، أَلَا إِنَّ اَلْقُوَّةَ اَلرَّمْيُ»
Uqbah ibn Amir (RAA) narrated, ‘I heard the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) recite when he was on the pulpit, ‘And make ready against them all you can of power, including steeds of war (tanks, planes etc.)’(Al-Anfal 8:60), surely strength is in shooting (arrows); surely strength is in shooting, surely strength is in shooting.’ Related by Muslim.
