Narrated by Ahmad · Authentic hadith
عن خالد بن عُرْفُطَةَ رضي الله عنه قال: قال لي رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : "يا خالد إنها ستكون بَعْدِي أَحْدَاثٌ وفِتَنٌ واختلاف، فَإِنِ اسْتَطَعْتَ أن تكون عبد الله المقتول لا القاتل فَافْعَلْ".
“Khālid ibn ‘Urfutah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: "O Khālid, after me, events, trials, and divergence will occur. So if you can be the servant of Allah who is killed, and not the one killing, then do so."”
