وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَعْمَرٍ، قَالَ: نَا قَبِيصَةُ بْنُ عُقْبَةَ، قَالَ: نَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ خَيْثَمَةَ، عَنْ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ غَفَلَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ - ؓ قَالَ:
إِذَا حَدَّثْتُكُمْ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ حَدِيثًا لَأَنْ أَخِرَّ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَكْذِبَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، وَإِذَا حَدَّثْتُ فِيمَا بَيْنَنَا، فَإِنَّ الْحَرْبَ خَدْعَةٌ. سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: يَكُونُ أَقْوَامٌ فِي آخِرِ الزَّمَانِ أَحْدَاثُ الْأَسْنَانِ، سُفَهَاءُ الْأَحْلَامِ، يَقُولُونَ مِنْ خَيْرِ قَوْلِ الْبَرِيَّةِ، يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ لَا يُجَاوِزُ إِيمَانُهُمْ حَنَاجِرَهُمْ، فَإِذَا لَقِيتُمُوهُمْ فَاقْتُلُوهُمْ، فَإِنَّ قَتْلَهُمْ أَجْرٌ لِمَنْ قَتَلَهُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ

✧ When I narrate to you from the Messenger of God ﷺ a ḥadīth, falling from the sky is dearer to me than lying about the Messenger of God ﷺ. When I speak among ourselves, war is deception. I heard the Messenger of God ﷺ say: At the end of time there will be peoples young in age, foolish in intellect, who speak the best of the speech of creation. They recite the Qurʾān, but their faith does not pass beyond their throats. When you meet them, kill them, for killing them is a reward for the one who kills them on the Day of Resurrection.
