Uqbah bin Aamir narrated: I heard the Messenger of Allah on the pulpit say:
““And prepare against them whatever you are able of power” and power is the ability to shoot, power is the ability to shoot, power is the ability to shoot” (Muslim)

 

  1. The masterclass will be run by "Archery for All" which has been set up to provide personal and professional archery training to people of all ages and abilities.
