English translation
[2455] 147 - (...) It was narrated from Abû Salamah and ‘Aṭâ’ bin Yasâr that they came to Abû Sa'eed Al-Khudrî and asked him about Al-Harûriyyah "Did you hear the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ mention them?" He said: "I do not know who Al-Harûriyyah are, but I heard the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ say: 'There will emerge among this Ummah' - and he did not say: 'from them' - 'people in comparison to whose prayer you will regard your prayer as insignificant. They will recite the Qur'an but it will not go any further than their throats. They will pass out of Islam like an arrow passes out of the prey, then the archer looks at his arrow, at its tip and at its end, and at its notch, wondering whether there are any traces of blood on it.'"
