Summary
The matter depends on a person's intention. Encouraging people to practise archery by citing the hadith is permissible. However, using the hadith to boost sales of archery goods should be avoided, because the aim departs from the Prophet's ﷺ encouragement and becomes merely earning as much profit as possible.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Dari segi galakan, atau targhib supaya memanah adalah dibolehkan tetapi dalam melariskan jualan barang panah dengan menggunakan hadith ini sewajarnya dielakkan.
