Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 28257a
"يَكُونُ مِنْ بَعْدِى قَوْمٌ يَقْرَأُونَ الْقُرْآنَ لَا يُجَاوِزُ تَرَاقِيَهُمْ، يَمْرُقُونَ مِنَ الدِّينِ، لَا يَعُودُونَ فِيه حَتَّى يَعُودَ السَّهْمُ إِلَى فُوقِهِ، طُوبَى لِمَنْ قَتَلَهُمْ وَطُوبَى لِمَنْ قَتَلُوهُ، شَرُّ قَتْلَى أَظَلَّتْهُمُ السَّمَاءُ وَأَقَلَّتْهُمُ الأَرْضُ، كِلَابُ أَهْلِ النَّارِ".

"There will come after me a people who recite the Quran but it does not pass beyond their throats. They will pass through the religion as an arrow passes through its target, and they will not return to it until the arrow returns to its notch. Blessed is the one who kills them, and blessed is the one whom they kill. The worst of the slain whom the sky has shaded and the earth has carried are the dogs of the people of the Fire."
