The questioner : I have a question, but I don't know what the hadith means. It is that
The Shaykh : This is an authentic hadith, and the intended meaning is the Khawarij. This is the one regarding whom the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came when he distributed a share among the Companions. A man stood up, who was the one who initiated the innovation of objecting to the rulers, who were later called the Khawarij. He said to him, “O Messenger of Allah, be just.” He said to him , then he turned to his Companions (peace and blessings be upon him) saying, , shaving the heads . This hadith is the origin of the hadith about the Khawarij, and it has many wordings and narrations, and authentic ones among them are , meaning young people , meaning weak in intellect , and so on. This is an authentic hadith, but the intended meaning is the Khawarij who rebel against the Shari'ah texts, which leads them to rebel against the rulers and governors, stirring up fitnah and shedding the blood of Muslims. This applies completely in the present age to those called the Group of Emigration and Takfir, if you have heard of them, following Egypt.
The questioner : We ask Abu Muhammad a question
A time will come upon my Ummah in which there will be young people of recent age, so wherever you find them, kill them
سيأتي زمانٌ على أمتي فيه شبابٌ حديثي السن أينما وجدتموها إقتلوهماThe Shaykh : This is an authentic hadith, and the intended meaning is the Khawarij
Young people of recent age, weak in intellect, so kill them wherever you find them
حدثاء الأسنان ضعفاء الأحلام فاقتلوهم أينما وجدتموهمO wretched one, who will be just if I am not just?
ويحك فمن يعدل إن لم أكن أعدلThere will emerge from the rear of this group a people whose prayer you will consider insignificant compared to your own, and whose fasting you will consider insignificant compared to your own, and whose worship you will consider insignificant compared to your own. They will emerge from Islam as an arrow emerges from a quiver. Their sign is shaving the heads
سيخرج من ضئضئ هذا أقوامٌ يحقر أحدكم صلاته مع صلاتهم، وصيامه مع صيامهم وعبادته مع عبادتهم يمرقون من الدين كما يمرق السهم من الرمية، سيماهم التحليقSo wherever you find them, kill them
فأينما وجدتموهم فاقتلوهمThat there will be a people who are young of recent age
أنه سيكون هناك أقوامٌ حدثاء الأسنانWeak in intellect
ضعفاء الأحلامWhose prayer you will consider insignificant
يحقر أحدكم صلاتهThe questioner : We ask Abu Muhammad a question
