حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ خَيْثَمَةَ عَنْ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ غَفَلَةَ قَالَ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ

إِذَا حَدَّثْتُكُمْ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ حَدِيثًا، فَلَأَنْ أَخِرَّ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَكْذِبَ عَلَيْهِ، وَإِذَا حَدَّثْتُكُمْ عَنْ غَيْرِهِ، فَإِنَّمَا أَنَا رَجُلٌ مُحَارِبٌ، وَالْحَرْبُ خَدْعَةٌ، سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: يَخْرُجُ فِي آخِرِ الزَّمَانِ قَوْمٌ أَحْدَاثُ الْأَسْنَانِ، سُفَهَاءُ الْأَحْلَامِ، يَقُولُونَ مِنْ خَيْرِ قَوْلِ الْبَرِيَّةِ، لَا يُجَاوِزُ إِيمَانُهُمْ حَنَاجِرَهُمْ، فَأَيْنَمَا لَقِيتُمُوهُمْ، فَاقْتُلُوهُمْ، فَإِنَّ قَتْلَهُمْ أَجْرٌ لِمَنْ قَتَلَهُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ

✧ When I narrate to you a hadith from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, for me to fall from the sky is more beloved to me than to lie upon him. When I narrate to you from other than him, I am but a man at war, and war is deception. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: At the end of time there will come forth a people young in age, foolish of minds, speaking the best words of creation; their faith does not pass beyond their throats. Wherever you meet them, kill them, for killing them is a reward on the Day of Resurrection for the one who kills them.
