4025. It was narrated that 'Arfajah bin Shuraih Al-Ashja' said: "I saw the Prophet ﷺ on the Minbar addressing the people. He said: 'After me there will be many calamities and much evil behavior. Whoever you see splitting away from the Jamâ'ah or trying to create division among the Ummah of Muḥammad ﷺ, then kill him, for the Hand of Allâh is with the Jamâ'ah, and the Shaitân is with the one who splits away from the Ummah, running with him." (Sahih)

Commentary
This person signifies either an apostate or a rebel. An apostate is the one who exits the fold of Islam after becoming a Muslim. Such a person would become an enemy for Islam, and would assist unbelievers against Muslims. Rebels mean people who join together in a group in opposition, after the Muslims have unanimously shown allegiance to one ruler or Amîr.
