English translation

6931. Narrated 'Atā' bin Yasār that they visited Abū Sa'īd Al-Khudrī and asked him about Al-Ḥaruriya, a certain unorthodox religious sect, "Did you hear the Prophet ﷺ saying anything about them?" Abū Sa'īd said, "I do not know what Al-Ḥaruriya is, but I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, 'There will appear in this nation — he did not say: From this nation — a group of people so pious apparently that you will consider your Ṣalāt (prayers) inferior to their Ṣalāt (prayer), but they will recite the Qur'ān, but it will not go beyond their throats(1), and they will go out of their religion as an arrow darts through the game, whereupon the archer may look at his arrow, its Nasl, its Rišāf and its Fūqa(1) to see whether it is blood-stained or not (i.e., they will have not even a trace of Islām in them).”

Arabic text

6931 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ المُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الوَهَّابِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى بْنَ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، وَعَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ: أَنَّهُمَا أَتَيَا أَبَا سَعِيدٍ الخُدْرِيَّ، فَسَأَلاَهُ عَنْ الحَرُورِيَّةِ: أَسَمِعْتَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ قَالَ: لاَ أَدْرِي مَا الحَرُورِيَّةُ؟ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «يَخْرُجُ فِي هَذِهِ الأُمَّةِ - وَلَمْ يَقُلْ مِنْهَا - قَوْمٌ تَحْقِرُونَ صَلاَتَكُمْ مَعَ صَلاَتِهِمْ، يَقْرَءُونَ القُرْآنَ لاَ يُجَاوِزُ حُلُوقَهُمْ، - أَوْ حَنَاجِرَهُمْ - يَمْرُقُونَ مِنَ الدِّينِ مُرُوقَ السَّهْمِ مِنَ الرَّمِيَّةِ، فَيَنْظُرُ الرَّامِي إِلَى سَهْمِهِ، إِلَى نَصْلِهِ، إِلَى رِصَافِهِ، فَيَتَمَارَى فِي الفُوقَةِ، هَلْ عَلِقَ بِهَا مِنَ الدَّمِ شَيْءٌ»
