2815 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ الْحُصَيْنِ، عَنْ أَبِي الْعَالِيَةِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: مَرَّ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِنَفَرٍ يَرْمُونَ فَقَالَ: «رَمْيًا بَنِي إِسْمَاعِيلَ فَإِنَّ أَبَاكُمْ كَانَ رَامِيًا» بَابُ الرَّايَاتِ وَالْأَلْوِيَةِ

Commentary
Archery is a praiseworthy hobby. All the games that are useful in Jihâd have the same rulings. Calling different tribes and clans with a common name develops love, unity, and brings harmony among them. Calling grandparents and great-grandparents as 'father' is allowed.
