Silsilah as-Sahihah 133 — Harming Muslims while appearing as Muslims

Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The one I fear most for you is the man who will recite the Qur'an, until, when its (the Qur'an's) splendour is seen upon him and he has become a support for Islam, he will cast it off, he will throw it behind his back, he will raise his sword against his neighbor and accuse him of shirk (polytheism)." I said: O Messenger of Allah! Which of the two is closer to shirk, the one who makes the accusation or the one who is accused? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The one who makes the accusation."
