حدثنا عفان، حدثنا حماد بن سلمة، حدثني سعيد بن جمهان قال: كنا نقاتل الخوارج وفينا عبد الله بن أبي أوفى وقد لحق غلام له بالخوارج، وهم من ذلك الشط، ونحن من ذا الشط، فناديناه أبا فيروز أبا فيروز، ويحك هذا مولاك عبد الله بن أبي أوفى؟ قال: نعم الرجل هو لو هاجر. قال: ما يقول عدو الله، قال: قلنا: يقول: نعم الرجل لو هاجر. قال: فقال: أهجرة بعد هجرتي مع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم؟ ثم قال: سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول: " طوبى لمن قتلهم وقتلوه "

Scholarly Commentary & Context

Synthesized commentary, isnad grading & cross-references

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #19149 in Musnad Ahmad.

[Core Subject]: The Prophet ﷺ foretold a group who would recite the Quran but it would not go past their throats, and who would leave the religion as an arrow leaves its target. They appeared as the Khawarij.

[Described Characteristics]: Their prayer and fasting would make the Companions' look small, yet they would kill the people of Islam and leave the idol-worshippers alone. Among them would be a man with a deformed arm like a woman's breast.

[Timeline & Context]: They broke away from Ali (RA) after Siffin in 37 AH. Ali fought them at Nahrawan in 38 AH, and the man with the deformed arm was found among the dead, as described.

[Prophetic Practice]: Worship without understanding and mercy can go badly wrong. Be slow to judge other Muslims.
