حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عِكْرِمَةُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ شُمَيْخٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا حَلَفَ وَاجْتَهَدَ فِي الْيَمِينِ قَالَ: " لَا وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ أَبِي الْقَاسِمِ بِيَدِهِ، لَيَخْرُجَنَّ قَوْمٌ مِنْ أُمَّتِي تُحَقِّرُونَ أَعْمَالَكُمْ مَعَ أَعْمَالِهِمْ، يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ، لَا يُجَاوِزُ تَرَاقِيَهُمْ، يَمْرُقُونَ مِنَ الْإِسْلَامِ كَمَا يَمْرُقُ السَّهْمُ مِنَ الرَّمِيَّةِ " قَالُوا: فَهَلْ مِنْ عَلَامَةٍ يُعْرَفُونَ بِهَا، قَالَ: فِيهِمْ رَجُلٌ ذُو يُدَيَّةٍ - أَوْ ثُدَيَّةٍ - مُحَلِّقِي رُءُوسِهِمْ "، قَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ: " فَحَدَّثَنِي عِشْرُونَ - أَوْ بِضْعٌ وَعِشْرُونَ - مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَنَّ عَلِيًّا رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، ، وَلِيَ قَتْلَهُمْ "، قَالَ: فَرَأَيْتُ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ بَعْدَمَا كَبِرَ، وَيَديْهِ (١) تَرْتَعِشُ يَقُولُ: قِتَالُهُمْ أَحَلُّ عِنْدِي مِنْ قِتَالِ عِدَّتِهِمْ مِنَ التُّرْكِ (٢)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Prophet (ﷺ) would swear a very firm oath about something, he would say, "No, by Him in Whose hand is the soul of Abu al-Qasim." On one occasion, after swearing such an oath, he said, "A people will surely appear in my Ummah whose deeds you will consider insignificant compared to your own deeds. They will recite the Qur'an, but it will not go beyond their throats. They will leave Islam just as an arrow passes through its prey." The Companions asked, "Is there any sign by which they can be recognized?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Among them will be a man on whose hand there will be a mark like a woman's breast, and their heads will be shaved." Abu Saeed (may Allah be pleased with him) says that even more Companions have told me that Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) killed those people. The narrator says that I saw Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) in his old age when his hands were trembling, and he was saying that in my view, killing those people was more lawful than killing so many Turks.
