Sa’d ibn Abi Waqqas (ra) is considered the Master archer of Islamic archery, his name here is surrounded by the names of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)’s bows: al-zawra’, al-rawha’, al-safra’, al-bayda’, al-katum, al-sadad and al-shadad. This emblem represents Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)’s recognition of Sa’d (ra)’s mastery in archery; his place in Islamic history as the first to shoot an arrow in Islam; and lastly, Prophet Muhmamad (pbuh)’s unique statement to Sa’d, which was never said of any other companion and reported by Ali ibn Abi Talib (ra), ‘يا سعدُ ! ارْمِ ، فداك أبي وأمي’ Oh Sa’d, shoot! May my father and mother be sacrificed for you!
This floral pattern was taken from a Victorian wallpaper, with an emphasis highlighting the crescent moon. This represents Fatima Elizabeth’s place in Victorian England and merging both Eastern and Western traditions with specifically her names ‘Fatima’ and ‘Elizabeth’ embodying the best of English and Islamic cultures. Hence, at our club’s beginner’s course we teach both mediterranean (English) and Islamic (Mamluk) archery.
The Fatima Elizabeth Archery Club logo represents a traditional bow and quiver, which highlights our club’s focus on traditional historic archery taken from the Mamluk master archer Taybugha al-Ashrafi al-Baklamishi al-Yunani's 1368CE manual ‘kitab ghunyat at-tullab fi ma’rifat rami al-nushshab’
The six-sided star, is a symbol in Islamic architecture which symbolises the khatam Sulayman – the seal of Prophet Sulayman (as). The three stars in our emblem also represent the three schools of Mamluk archery: Abu Hashim al-Mawardi, Tahir al-Balkhi and Ishaq al-Raqqi
The text reads تعلموا الرمي والقرآن in English which means ‘Learn Archery and the Quran’, this is a snippet from a hadith (saying of Prophet Muhammad), with the full text below from al-Daylamiyy:تعلموا الرمي والقرآن، وخير ساعات المؤمن حين يذكر الله عز وجل Learn Archery and the Qur’an, and a believer’s finest hours are when he remembers Allah, the Almighty and Majestic. This hadith is at the cornerstone of our Archery club, as it emphasises the holistic nature of the Prophetic worldview, his role as an archer and toxophilite, adding the place of spirituality in our Archery.
Lamp from the Amir Aydakin al-'Ala'i al-Bunduqdar’s mausoleum. The bow was the emblem of the bunduqdar (the bow-holder), a palatial office. It seems that the emir chose to integrate its former position to his name. We chose this to represent the unique focus on Mamluk Archery at our club
