2631. It was reported from Sālim bin Abī An-Naḍr, the freed slave of 'Umar bin 'Ubaidullāh meaning, Ibn Ma'mar — and he was his scribe — he said: " 'Abdullāh bin Abī Awfā wrote to him ( 'Umar bin 'Ubaidullāh) when he went out to Al-Harūriyyah: 'The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said once when he faced the enemies: 'O people! Do not desire to encounter the enemy, and ask Allāh for 'Āfiyah. And when you encounter them, then be patient, and know that Paradise is under the shade of the swords.' Then he said: 'Allāhumma! Munzilal-Kitābi mujri-as-saḥābi wa hāzimal-ahzābi ihzimhum wansumā 'alaihim (O Allāh! Revealer of the Book, mover of the rain clouds, vanquisher of the confederates,
defeat them, and aid us over them).” (Ṣaḥīḥ)

Commentary
The Harūriyah refers to the Khawārij or a group of them. They were so named because, while returning from the battle of Siffin, they parted company with ‘Alī, may Allāh be pleased with him, and assembled at a place known as Harurā’ outside Al-Kūfah, which became their first center.
