Hadith 12:295
Al-Fadl ibn Dukayn narrated to us, from Sufyan, from Simak, from Ikrimah, from Ibn Abbas, who said: He passed by some people of the Ansar who had placed a pigeon and were shooting at it. He said: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) forbade that any living being be taken as a target.
حدثنا الفضل بن دكين عن سفيان عن سماك عن عكرمة عن بن عباس قال مر على أناس من الأنصار قد وضعوا حمامة يرمونها فقال نهى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم أن يتخذ الروح غرضا
