Musnad Ahmad 1303 (Book 5, Hadith 706) #34932
Passing Out of Islam

SUMMARY: People will pass out of Islam and recite the Quran but it will not benefit them. There is reward for those who kill them and are killed by them. They can be identified by a man with a deformed arm.

'Ali bin Abi Talib (رضي الله عنه) narrated that The Messenger of Allah said: "Some people will pass out of Islam as the arrow passes out of the prey. They will recite the Qur'an but it will go no further than their collar bones. Glad tidings to the one who kills them and they kill him. Their sign will be a man with a deformed arm.
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا شَبَابَةُ بْنُ سَوَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنِي نُعَيْمُ بْنُ حَكِيمٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو مَرْيَمَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ، رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ إِنَّ قَوْمًا يَمْرُقُونَ مِنْ الْإِسْلَامِ كَمَا يَمْرُقُ السَّهْمُ مِنْ الرَّمِيَّةِ يَقْرَءُونَ الْقُرْآنَ لَا يُجَاوِزُ تَرَاقِيَهُمْ طُوبَى لِمَنْ قَتَلَهُمْ وَقَتَلُوهُ عَلَامَتُهُمْ رَجُلٌ مُخْدَجُ الْيَدِ‏.‏
