Hadith 31:301
Yazid narrated to us, Muhammad ibn ‘Amr narrated to us, from Abu Salamah, who said: A man came to Abu Sa’id and said: "Did you hear the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, mention anything regarding the Haruriyyah?" He said: "I heard him mention: 'A people who will delve deeply into the religion. One of you will consider his prayer insignificant compared to their prayer, and his fasting compared to their fasting. They will pass through the religion just as an arrow passes through the game animal.'" "He takes his arrow, and he looks at its blade, and he sees nothing. Then he looks at its shaft, and he sees nothing. Then he looks at its notch, and he sees nothing. Then he looks at its feathers, and he doubts whether he sees anything or not."
حدثنا يزيد، حدثنا محمد بن عمرو، عن أبي سلمة، قال: جاء رجل إلى أبي سعيد فقال: هل سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يذكر في الحرورية شيئا؟ قال: سمعته يذكر: " قوما يتعمقون في الدين يحقر أحدكم صلاته عند صلاتهم، وصومه عند صومهم، يمرقون من الدين كما يمرق السهم من الرمية، أخذ سهمه، فنظر في نصله فلم ير شيئا، ثم نظر في رصافه فلم ير شيئا، ثم نظر في قدحه فلم ير شيئا، ثم نظر في القذذ فتمارى هل يرى شيئا أم لا "
