Archery is the Practice of Islam
Our entire aim is the bullseye. But what that means to the Muslim has unique meaning connected to human purpose. To begin to understand that we go back to The Blessed Quran...
The reason why Allah sent down the Quran was to see What would resonate back up to the heavens from living human hearts.
The beginning, middle, and end of the Futuwwah 5 Journey is encompassed in archery. Because archery's sole focus is on the Bullseye. What does this have to do with the Quran?
The believer knows with full certainty that All of the answers to everything are in The Blessed Quran. And all of the secrets in Quran are consolidated in the Fatiha. And all of the secrets in the Fatiha are contained in the letter "Ba" and the secret of the "Ba" is in the dot.
That dot is the bullseye. Archery is a practice that is analogous to life. And life's purpose is to worship Allah. And the essence of worship is in Prayer. And The goal of prayer is to be present with Allah.
Have you shot the Turkish Horse Bow? It is my #1 for Muslim archers. I believe that we should all begin with it. Share you thoughts in the comments.
