Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "
None of you
should point at his brother with a weapon because he does not know that Satan may make it lose from his hand and,
as a result, he may fall into a pit of Hell-fire (by accidentally killing him)
.''
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
The narration in Muslim is: Abul-Qasim (i.e., the Messenger of Allah) (PBUH) said, "
He who points at his (Muslim)
brother with a weapon is cursed by the angels even if the other person should be his real brother
.''
Commentary:
"
Silah
'' is that weapon which is used in war for attack and defense, i.e., sword, gun, pistol, lance, etc.
To point any such weapon towards a Muslim or Dhimmi, even to frighten him, is forbidden. It is very unfortunate
that, contrary to the teachings of Islam, display and use of weapons are very common nowadays so much so that the
fashion of air fire festivities is gaining increasing popularity in Muslim society. This fashion is totally against the
teachings of Islam and its dangerous consequences are witnessed everyday. May Allah grant us guidance to follow
the Right Path.

Jabir (May Allah be pleased with him) said:
The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) prohibited from presenting a
drawn sword to another
.''
[Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi].
Commentary:
If a naked sword drops from one's hand, it can injure one's hand, foot or any part of the body. Similar
is the case of a sharp knife or any other similar weapon and tool. One should never give it to anyone from its blade
side. When we study such things, we are really wonderstruck to see the care which Islam has taken to respect
humanity.
