Hadith 101

أَخْبَرَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ، قَالَ: "إِنَّ أَهْلَ الْأَهْوَاءِ أَهْلُ الضَّلَالَةِ، وَلَا أَرَى مَصِيرَهُمْ إِلَّا إِلَي النَّارَ، فَجَرِّبْهُمْ فَلَيْسَ أَحَدٌ مِنْهُمْ يَنْتَحِلُ قَوْلًا أَوْ قَالَ: حَدِيثًا فَيَتَنَاهَى بِهِ الْأَمْرُ دُونَ السَّيْفِ، وَإِنَّ النِّفَاقَ كَانَ ضُرُوبًا، ثُمَّ تَلَا: وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ عَاهَدَ اللَّهَ لَئِنْ آتَانَا مِنْ فَضْلِهِ لَنَصَّدَّقَنَّ وَلَنَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ سورة التوبة آية 75، وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَلْمِزُكَ فِي الصَّدَقَاتِ فَإِنْ أُعْطُوا مِنْهَا رَضُوا وَإِنْ لَمْ يُعْطَوْا مِنْهَا إِذَا هُمْ يَسْخَطُونَ سورة التوبة آية 58، وَمِنْهُمُ الَّذِينَ يُؤْذُونَ النَّبِيَّ وَيِقُولُونَ هُوَ أُذُنٌ قُلْ أُذُنُ خَيْرٍ لَكُمْ سورة التوبة آية 61 فَاخْتَلَفَ قَوْلُهُمْ وَاجْتَمَعُوا، فِي الشَّكِّ وَالتَّكْذِيبِ، وَإِنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ اخْتَلَفَ قَوْلُهُمْ وَاجْتَمَعُوا فِي السَّيْفِ، وَلَا أَرَى مَصِيرَهُمْ إِلَّا إِلَي النَّارَ"، قَالَ حَمَّادٌ: ثُمَّ قَالَ أَيُّوبُ عِنْدَ ذَا الْحَدِيثِ أَوْ عِنْدَ الْأَوَّلِ: وَكَانَ وَاللَّهِ مِنْ الْفُقَهَاءِ ذَوِي الْأَلْبَابِ: يَعْنِي أَبَا قِلَابَةَ.
Abu Qilabah said: Those who follow desires are misguided; in my opinion, their abode is nothing but Hell. As an example, observe that whoever adopted any (new) statement or matter, his affair reached to killing. Indeed, there are many forms of hypocrisy. Then he recited these verses: "Among them are those who made a covenant with Allah: If He gives us of His bounty, we will surely give charity and be among the righteous." (__QUR_9:75__)

"And among them are those who criticize you concerning the (distribution of) charities. If they are given some of it, they are pleased, but if they are not given any, at once they become angry." (__QUR_9:58__)

"And among them are those who hurt the Prophet and say, 'He is (all) ear.' Say, 'It is an ear of goodness for you.'" (__QUR_9:61__)

So, they differed in their words and gathered upon doubt and denial. Their statements are different, and they deserve to be killed. I do not think their abode is anything but Hell. Hammad said: Then Ayyub, mentioning this hadith, said: By Allah, he (i.e., Abu Qilabah) was among the very intelligent, understanding jurists.
