أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ أَبُو عَمْرٍو الْحِيرِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ هَاشِمٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى الْقَطَّانُ عَنْ عَوْفٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نَضْرَةَ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «يَكُونُ فِي أُمَّتِي فِرْقَتَانِ تَمْرُقُ بَيْنَهُمَا مَارِقَةٌ تَقْتُلُهَا أَوْلَى الطَّائِفَتَيْنِ بِالْحَقِّ»
