Sahih al-Bukhari 5479 (Book 72, Hadith 5) #5255
The Dangers of Throwing Stones

SUMMARY: Throwing stones is discouraged as it can cause harm to people and animals.

Narrated 'Abdullah bin Maghaffal: that he saw a man throwing stones with two fingers (at something) and said to him, "Do not throw stones, for Allah's Messenger ﷺ has forbidden throwing stones, or he used to dislike it"'.Abdullah added: Throwing stones will neither hunt the game, nor kill (or hurt) an enemy, but it may break a tooth or gouge out an eye". Afterwards 'Abdullah once again saw the man throwing stones. He said to him, "I tell you that Allah's Messenger ﷺ has forbidden or disliked the throwing the stones (in such a way), yet you are throwing stones! I shall not talk to you for such-and-such a period".
حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ رَاشِدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، وَيَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ ـ وَاللَّفْظُ لِيَزِيدَ ـ عَنْ كَهْمَسِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُغَفَّلٍ، أَنَّهُ رَأَى رَجُلاً يَخْذِفُ فَقَالَ لَهُ لاَ تَخْذِفْ فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَهَى عَنِ الْخَذْفِ ـ أَوْ كَانَ يَكْرَهُ الْخَذْفَ ـ وَقَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنَّهُ لاَ يُصَادُ بِهِ صَيْدٌ وَلاَ يُنْكَى بِهِ عَدُوٌّ، وَلَكِنَّهَا قَدْ تَكْسِرُ السِّنَّ وَتَفْقَأُ الْعَيْنَ ‏"‏‏.‏ ثُمَّ رَآهُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ يَخْذِفُ فَقَالَ لَهُ أُحَدِّثُكَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ نَهَى عَنِ الْخَذْفِ‏.‏ أَوْ كَرِهَ الْخَذْفَ، وَأَنْتَ تَخْذِفُ لاَ أُكَلِّمُكَ كَذَا وَكَذَا‏.‏
