Sahih Muslim Book - 34, Hadith - 5050

حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، حَدَّثَنَا كَهْمَسٌ ، عَنِ ابْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ ، قَالَ: رَأَى عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْمُغَفَّلِ رَجُلاً مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ يَخْذِفُ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: لاَ تَخْذِفْ ، فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَكْرَهُ ، أَوْ قَالَ ، يَنْهَى عَنِ الْخَذْفِ ، فَإِنَّهُ لاَ يُصْطَادُ بِهِ الصَّيْدُ، وَلاَ يُنْكَأُ بِهِ الْعَدُوُّ ، وَلَكِنَّهُ يَكْسِرُ السِّنَّ ، وَيَفْقَأُ الْعَيْنَ ، ثُمَّ رَآهُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ يَخْذِفُ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: أُخْبِرُكَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَكْرَهُ ، أَوْ يَنْهَى عَنِ الْخَذْفِ ثُمَّ أَرَاكَ تَخْذِفُ ، لاَ أُكَلِّمُكَ كَلِمَةً كَذَا وَكَذَا.

It was narrated that Ibn Buraidah said: "Abdullah bin Al-Mughaffal saw one of his companions throwing small pebbles and he said to him: 'Do not throw small pebbles, for the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) disliked - or forbade - the throwing of small pebbles, for no game is caught thereby and no enemy is defeated; it just breaks a tooth or puts out an eye.' Then he saw him throwing small pebbles again after that and he said to him: 'I tell you that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) used to dislike - or forbid - the throwing of small pebbles, then I see you throwing small pebbles! I will never speak to you again!"'
