Mu‘āwiyah reported that the Messenger of Allah—may Allah bless him and grant him peace—said:
“Whoever breaks away from the community by so much as a handspan will enter the Fire.” (1)
Ibn ‘Umar reported: I heard the Messenger of Allah—may Allah bless him and grant him peace—say:
“Whoever breaks away from his community (2), or returns to Bedouin life after his migration, has no plea in his defence.” (3)
Rib‘ī reported: I came to Hudhayfah during the nights when the people marched to ‘Uthmān. He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah—may Allah bless him and grant him peace—say:
“Whoever breaks away from the community and replaces (4) the leadership will meet Allah with no plea in his defence.” (5)
(1) Al-Hākim reported this hadith from Mu‘āwiya—may Allah be pleased with him—in his Mustadrak, 1/118. Al-Dhahabī did not comment on it.
(2) m: imāmahu (his leader). In al-Mustadrak and Talkhīs al-Mustadrak: ummatan (a community).
(3) This hadith is reported from Ibn ‘Umar—may Allah be pleased with them both—in al-Mustadrak, 1/118. Al-Dhahabī did not comment on it.
(4) In al-Mustadrak and Majma‘ al-Zawā’id: wa-istadhalla (and treated with contempt).
(5) This wording of the hadith is reported through Rib‘ī from Hudhayfa ibn al-Yamān—may Allah be pleased with him—in al-Mustadrak, 1/119. Al-Hākim said: “Abū ‘Āsim corroborated his transmission, reporting from Kathīr.” Al-Dhahabī said: “Authentic; al-Qattān transmitted it from Kathīr.” The second chain, through Abū ‘Āsim from Kathīr ibn Abī Kathīr, appears with similar wording on the same page, 1/119. Al-Hākim said: “This hadith is authentic. Kathīr ibn Abī Kathīr was a Kufan who settled in Basra. Yahyā ibn Sa‘īd al-Qattān and ‘Īsā ibn Yūnus transmitted from him, and no criticism of him has been recorded.” Al-Haythamī also reported it in Majma‘ al-Zawā’id, 5/222, and said: “Ahmad reported it, and its narrators are trustworthy.”
