3507. Narrated Salama رضي الله عنه: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ passed by some people from the tribe of Aslam practising archery. He said, “O children of Ismā'il (Ishmael)! Throw (arrows), for your father was an archer. I am on the side of Banī so-and-so (meaning one of the two teams).” The other team stopped throwing; whereupon the Prophet ﷺ said, “What has happened to them?” They replied, “How shall we throw while you are with Banī so-and-so?” He said, “Throw, for I am with all of you.”

3507 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سَلَمَةُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، عَلَى قَوْمٍ مِنْ أَسْلَمَ يَتَنَاضَلُونَ بِالسُّوقِ، فَقَالَ: «ارْمُوا بَنِي إِسْمَاعِيلَ فَإِنَّ أَبَاكُمْ كَانَ رَامِيًا، وَأَنَا مَعَ بَنِي فُلاَنٍ» لِأَحَدِ الفَرِيقَيْنِ، فَأَمْسَكُوا بِأَيْدِيهِمْ، فَقَالَ: «مَا لَهُمْ» قَالُوا: وَكَيْفَ نَرْمِي وَأَنْتَ مَعَ بَنِي فُلاَنٍ؟ قَالَ: «ارْمُوا وَأَنَا مَعَكُمْ كُلِّكُمْ» بَابٌ

(1) (H. 3505) ‘Āishah did not specify what she would do if she did not keep her promise, this is why she manumitted so many slaves so that she might feel at ease as to the adequacy of her expiation.
