Hadith 22:284

Ali ibn Mushir narrated to us, from al-Shaybani, from Yasir ibn Amr, who said: I asked Sahl ibn Hunayf, "What did you hear the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, mention regarding these Khawarij?" He said: I heard him—and he gestured with his hand toward the east—saying: "There will emerge from it a people who recite the Quran with their tongues, but it will not pass beyond their throats. They will pass through the religion just as an arrow passes through the game."

حدثنا علي بن مسهر عن الشيباني عن يسير بن عمرو قال سألت سهل بن حنيف ما سمعت النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم يذكر هؤلاء الخوارج قال سمعته وأشار بيده نحو المشرق يخرج منه قوم يقرأون القرآن بألسنتهم لا يعدو تراقيهم يمرقون من الدين كما يمرق السهم من الرمية
