Sayyiduna Abu Burdah (may Allah be pleased with him) says that I was sitting with Ubaydullah bin Ziyad when the heads of the Khawarij were being brought to him one after another. Whenever a head was brought to him, I would say: For Hell. He says that then Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Yazid Hatmi (may Allah be pleased with him) spoke up: O nephew! Do you not know that indeed I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: "Indeed, the punishment of this Ummah has been placed in its world."

Brief Explanation
Explanation: It is not permissible to name a specific person or to point towards someone and say that he is from the people of Hell. As for the mention of punishment in this world, what is meant is the believers of this Ummah; they will not be punished in the Hereafter like the disbelievers.
