English translation
6933. Narrated Abū Sa‘īd: While the Prophet ﷺ was distributing something(2), ‘Abdullāh bin Dhil-Khuwaṣira At-Tamīmī came and said, “Be just, O Allāh’s Messenger!” The Prophet ﷺ said, “Woe to you! Who would be just if I were not?” ‘Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb said, “Allow me to cut off his neck!” The Prophet ﷺ said, “Leave him, for he has companions, and if you compare your Ṣalāt (prayers) with their Ṣalāt (prayer) and your Siyām (fasting) with theirs, you will look down upon your Ṣalāt (prayer) and fasting in comparison to theirs. Yet they will go out of the religion as an arrow darts through the game’s body in which case, if the Qudhahd(3) of the arrow is examined, nothing will be found on it, and when its Nasl(3) is examined, nothing will be found on it; and when its Nady is examined, nothing will be found on it. The arrow has been too fast to be smeared by dung and blood. The sign by which these people will be recognized will be a man whose one hand (or breast) will be like the breast of a woman (or like a moving piece of flesh). These people will appear when there will be differences among the people (Muslims)." Abū Sa'īd added: I testify that I heard this from the Prophet ﷺ and also testify that 'Ali killed those people while I was with him. The man with the description given by the Prophet ﷺ was brought to 'Ali. The following Verses were revealed in connection with that person (i.e., 'Abdullāh bin Dhil-Khuwaṣira At-Tamīmi): "And of them are some who accuse you (O Muḥammad ﷺ) in the matter of (the distribution of) the alms..." (V.9:58)
