Hadith 38:147

Aswad ibn Amir narrated to us, he said: Hammad ibn Salamah narrated to us, from Ali ibn Zayd, from Bishr ibn Shughaf, who said: Abdullah ibn Salam asked me about the Khawarij. I said: "They are the people who pray the longest and fast the most, except that when they cross the bridge, they shed blood and seize wealth." He said: "Do not ask about the harm they cause. As for me, I had said to them: 'Do not kill Uthman; leave him. For by Allah, if you were to leave him for eleven nights, he would surely die in his bed.' But they did not do so." "For no prophet was killed except that seventy thousand people were killed because of him, and no caliph was killed except that thirty-five thousand people were killed because of him."

حدثنا أسود بن عامر قال حدثنا حماد بن سلمة عن علي بن زيد عن بشر بن شغاف ( ( ( شغا ) ) ) قال سألني عبد الله بن سلام عن الخوارج فقلت هم أطول الناس صلاة وأكثرهم صوما غير أنهم إذا خلفوا الجسر اهراقوا الدماء وأخذوا الأموال فقال لا سل ( ( ( سئل ) ) ) عنهم الأذى أما إني قد قلت لهم لا تقتلوا عثمان دعوه فوالله لئن تركتموه إحدى عشرة ليلة ليموتن على فراشه موتا فلم يفعلوا فإنه لم يقتل نبي إلا قتل به سبعون ألفا من الناس ولم يقتل خليفة إلا قتل به خمسة وثلاثون ألفا
