حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الدَّحْدَاحِ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلُ الْعُذْرِيُّ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ ، بِدِمَشْقَ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ عَامِرٍ أَبُو عَامِرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا خُلَيْدُ بْنُ دَعْلَجٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو غَالِبٍ ، قَالَ : جِيءَ بِرُءُوسِ الْخَوَارِجِ ، فَنُصِبَتْ عَلَى دَرَجِ مَسْجِدِ دِمَشْقَ ، فَجَعَلَ النَّاسُ يَنْظُرُونَ إِلَيْهَا ، وَخَرَجْتُ أَنَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهَا ، فَجَاءَ أَبُو أُمَامَةَ ، عَلَى حِمَارٍ وَعَلَيْهِ قَمِيصٌ سُنْبُلانِيُّ ، فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهِمْ ، فَقَالَ : "مَا صَنَعَ الشَّيْطَانُ بِهَذِهِ الأُمَّةِ ؟ ، يَقُولُهَا ثَلاثًا ، شَرُّ قَتْلَى تَحْتَ ظِلِّ السَّمَاءِ هَؤُلاءِ ، خَيْرُ قَتْلَى تَحْتَ ظِلِّ السَّمَاءِ مَنْ قَتَلَهُ هَؤُلاءِ ، هَؤُلاءِ كِلابُ النَّارِ ، يَقُولُهَا ثَلاثًا ثُمَّ بَكَى ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ ، قَالَ أَبُو غَالِبٍ : فَاتَّبَعْتُهُ ، فَقُلْتُ : سَمِعْتُكَ تَقُولُ قَوْلا قَبْلُ ، فَأَنْتَ قُلْتَهُ ؟ ، فَقَالَ : سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ ، إِنِّي إِذًا لَجَرِيءٌ ، بَلْ سَمِعْتُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِرَارًا ، فَقُلْتُ لَهُ : رَأَيْتُكَ بَكَيْتَ ، فَقَالَ : رَحْمَةً لَهُمْ كَانُوا مِنْ أَهْلِ الإِسْلامِ مَرَّةً ، ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي : أَمَا تَقْرَأُ ؟ قُلْتُ : بَلَى قَالَ : فَاقْرَأْ مِنْ آلِ عِمْرَانَ ، فَقَرَأْتُ ، فَقَالَ : أَمَا تَسْمَعُ قَوْلَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ : فَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ زَيْغٌ فَيَتَّبِعُونَ مَا تَشَابَهَ مِنْهُ سورة آل عمران آية 7 كَانَ فِي قُلُوبِ هَؤُلاءِ زَيْغٌ ، فَزِيغَ بِهِمُ ، اقْرَأْ عِنْدَ رَأْسِ الْمِائَةِ ، فَقَرَأْتُ حَتَّى إِذَا بَلَغْتُ : يَوْمَ تَبْيَضُّ وُجُوهٌ وَتَسْوَدُّ وُجُوهٌ فَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ اسْوَدَّتْ وُجُوهُهُمْ أَكَفَرْتُمْ بَعْدَ إِيمَانِكُمْ سورة آل عمران آية 106 ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا أَبَا أُمَامَةَ ، أَهُمْ هَؤُلاءِ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ هُمْ هَؤُلاءِ " . لَمْ يَرْوِهِ عَنْ خُلَيْدِ بْنِ دَعْلَجٍ ، إِلا ابْنُ الْوَلِيدِ
Abu Ghalib narrates: When the heads of the Khawarij were brought and placed on one of the steps of the mosque of Damascus, people were coming to see them. I also went out to see them, and Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) came riding on a donkey. He was wearing a Sunbulani shirt. He looked at them and said: "What has Satan done with this Ummah!" He said this twice, then said: "Under the shade of the sky, the worst of those killed are these, and those whom they killed are the best of those killed." Then he said: "These (Khawarij) are the dogs of Hell." He said this three times and then wept, and then went back. Abu Ghalib said: I also followed him, then I said: "I heard something from you a little while ago, did you say that?" He said: "Subhan Allah, how could I dare to say such a thing? I have heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say it many times." I said: "Then you also wept," so he said: "Yes, out of pity for them, for they too were once Muslims." Then he said to me: "Do you recite the Qur'an?" I said: "Why not?" So he said: "Recite Al-Imran." I recited it, then he said: "Have you heard that Allah Almighty says: ' Those in whose hearts is deviation follow that which is unspecific of it', as if there was deviation in their hearts which led them astray." Then he said: "Recite from the end of the hundred verses," so I recited: ' On the Day [some] faces will turn white and [some] faces will turn black. As for those whose faces turn black, [to them it will be said], 'Did you disbelieve after your belief?'' I said: "O Abu Umamah! Are these the same people?" He said: "Yes! These are the same people."

In this hadith, the condemnation of the Khawarij is mentioned—those who declare everyone to be disbelievers (kafir), consider rebellion against them permissible, and unjustly kill Muslims. Such people are destined for Hell. We too, in Pakistan, are confronted with some similar takfiri and khariji individuals, who are bent on terrorism in a covert manner and have killed thousands of Muslims in Pakistan through suicide attacks. May Allah grant guidance to these people, ameen. Furthermore, this hadith is evidence that the noble Companions (radi Allahu anhum) were truthful individuals, and were far removed from falsehood.
