“They Will Leave the Religion Like an Arrow Leaves the Bow” — The Prophecy About the KhawārijNot vague. Not symbolic.
But sharp, swift, terrifyingly clear.
“They will exit the religion like an arrow passes through the target.”
Sahih al-Bukhārī (3611), Sahih Muslim (1064)The arrow doesn’t hesitate.
It doesn’t pause.
It doesn’t return.
It pierces and vanishes.
That’s how fast the Khawārij depart from Islām.
Who Are the Khawārij?They are those who:
Declare Muslims to be disbelievers without clear proof.
Rebel against the Muslim rulers in the name of piety.
Shed Muslim blood while chanting “Allāhu Akbar.”
Claim to uphold Islām while destroying its unity.
The Prophet ﷺ said:
“They will kill the people of Islām and leave the idol worshippers.”
Sahih Muslim (1064)They are extreme, angry, bitter — with no concern for hikmah, no mercy in their speech, and no loyalty to the jamāʿah of the Muslims.
The Arrow of RebellionEvery generation of the Ummah has seen this cursed arrow fly:
In the time of ʿAlī ibn Abī Ṭālib (رضي الله عنه) — when they made takfīr on him and murdered him.
In the early centuries — when they attacked rulers and accused scholars of kufr.
In our time — through modern extremist groups who bomb markets, masājid, and civilians, claiming to “defend Islām.”
But they are not defenders.
They are traitors with Qur’ān on their tongues but hatred in their hearts.
A Reminder to Reflect:How can someone claim to love Islām…
Yet slander the scholars?
Accuse Muslims of apostasy?
And turn their swords against those who pray five times a day?
O Muslim!Beware of the sweet-sounding slogans:
“No rule but Allāh’s!” “The scholars are silent!” “Let’s rise against the system!”
The Salaf Warned UsImām al-Barbahārī (d. 329H) said:
“If you find a man making supplication against the ruler, know that he is a person of innovation. If you find a person making supplication for the ruler to be upright, know that he is a person of the Sunnah, if Allah wills”
Sharḥ al-Sunnah, Point 149The Prophet ﷺ said about them:
“The dogs of the Hellfire.”
Sunan Ibn Mājah (176), AuthenticYes, dogs of the Fire — despite their Qur’ān, fasting, and “righteous” appearances.
What’s the Way Forward?
Stay with the jamāʿah of the Muslims. Hold firm to the way of the Salaf. Follow the scholars of the Sunnah, not angry YouTube warriors. Guard your heart from pride, takfīr, and extremism.May Allāh protect us from the arrow of the Khawārij.
May He keep us firm upon the path of the Sahābah.
Please donate today. For the sake of Allah. For the reward that only Allah can measure.
Imām Ibn al-Qayyim (رحمه الله) said:
"If those who give Sadaqah [charity] knows that their Sadaqah falls on Allah (Taʿālā)'s Hand before the hand of the poor, then surely, the joy of giving would be more than the joy of receiving."
[Madārij Al-Sālikīn]
May Allah accept from us all. May He write us among those who gave when giving was hardest, and loved Him when it mattered most.
