4026. It was narrated that 'Arfajah bin Shuraih said: "The Prophet ﷺ said: 'After me there will be many calamities and much evil behavior.' He raised his hands (and said): 'Whomever you see trying to create division among the Ummah of Muhammad ﷺ when they are all united, kill him, no matter who he is among the people.'" (Saḥīḥ)
4021 - أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى الْمَرْوَزِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ، عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ عِلَاقَةَ، عَنْ عَرْفَجَةَ بْنِ شُرَيْحٍ قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّهَا سَتَكُونُ بَعْدِي هَنَاتٌ وَهَنَاتٌ وَهَنَاتٌ - وَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ - فَمَنْ رَأَيْتُمُوهُ يُرِيدُ تَفْرِيقَ أَمْرِ أُمَّةِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُمْ جَمِيعٌ، فَاقْتُلُوهُ كَائِنًا مَنْ كَانَ مِنَ النَّاسِ»

The solidarity and the unity of the (Muslim) nation is of first and foremost importance above everything else. An attempt to create disunity and discord over petty and trivial matters, and raise such things to standards by which to test truth from falsehood, is a grave crime. If the nation reaches an overall consensus over a ruler, then to create discord and disunity by needlessly criticizing and raising protests against the Amir unequivocally falls under the category of rebellion. The ruler is after all a human being. He is likely to have deficiencies. He might probably make mistakes, but deficiencies, weaknesses, or mistakes do not justify rebellion and corruption.
