Sahih al-Bukhari 4854 (Book 66, Hadith 83)
you look down upon yours, and whose fasting will make you look down upon yours, but they will
recite the Qur’an which will not exceed their throats (they will not act on it) and they will go out of
Islam as an arrow goes out through the game whereupon the archer would examine the arrowhead but
see nothing, and look at the unfeathered arrow but see nothing, and look at the arrow feathers but see
nothing, and finally he suspects to find something in the lower part of the arrow.”
“ يَخْرُجُ فِيكُمْ قَوْمٌ تَحْقِرُونَ صَلاَتَكُمْ مَعَ صَلاَتِهِمْ، وَصِيَامَكُمْ مَعَ صِيَامِهِمْ، وَعَمَلَكُمْ مَعَ عَمَلِهِمْ، وَيَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ لاَ يُجَاوِزُ حَنَاجِرَهُمْ، يَمْرُقُونَ مِنَ الدِّينَ كَمَا يَمْرُقُ السَّهْمُ مِنَ الرَّمِيَّةِ، يَنْظُرُ فِي النَّصْلِ فَلاَ يَرَى شَيْئًا، وَيَنْظُرُ فِي الْقِدْحِ فَلاَ يَرَى شَيْئًا، وَيَنْظُرُ فِي الرِّيشِ فَلاَ يَرَى شَيْئًا، وَيَتَمَارَى فِي الْفُوقِ ”.
