174. It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "There will emerge people who will recite the Qur'ân but it will not go any deeper than their collarbones. Whenever a group of them appears, they should be cut off (i.e. killed)." Ibn 'Umar said: "I heard the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ say: 'Whenever a group of them appears, they should be killed' — (he said it) more than twenty times — 'until Dajjâl emerges among them.'" (Hasan)
174 - حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَمْزَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «يَنْشَأُ نَشْءٌ يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ لَا يُجَاوِزُ تَرَاقِيَهُمْ، كُلَّمَا خَرَجَ قَرْنٌ قُطِعَ» قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «كُلَّمَا خَرَجَ قَرْنٌ قُطِعَ، أَكْثَرَ مِنْ عِشْرِينَ مَرَّةً، حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ فِي عِرَاضِهِمُ الدَّجَّالُ»

The Hadith contains the indication that only a small number of people shall be influenced by the erroneous ideas of the Khawârij. The majority of the people shall not only stick to the right path with regard to this misguided group, but also fight them and liquidate them. It seems that the Dajjâl (False Christ) will also try to misrepresent falsehood as truth in order to misguide the people. The Prophet 'Eisa ﷺ shall kill him and his associates.
