Yazid Faqeer reported,

I had been captivated by one of the views held by the Khawarij, so we set out, a sizable band of us, intending to perform the pilgrimage and then to rise up against the people.We passed through Madinah, and there was Jabir bin Abdullah, seated against a pillar, telling the people about the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He happened to mention those who would be brought out of Hell.I said to him, "Companion of the Messenger of Allah, what is this that you people are saying? Allah says, 'Whoever You admit to the Fire, You have surely disgraced him, and the wrongdoers will have no helpers' [Al Imran 3:192], and He says, 'As for those who transgressed, their refuge is the Fire. Every time they wish to leave it they are returned to it, and it is said to them, taste the punishment of the Fire which you used to deny' [Sajdah 32:20]. So what is this that you are claiming?"Jabir replied, "Do you recite the Quran?"I said, "Yes."He asked, "Then have you heard of the station of Muhammad ?" meaning the station to which Allah will raise him.I said, "Yes."He said, "That is the praised station of Muhammad ﷺ, through which Allah will bring out whomever He brings out."Then he described how the bridge would be set in place and how people would pass over it. I am afraid I cannot recall all of that accurately. But he did maintain that a group of people would come out of the Fire after having been in it. He said they would emerge looking like charred sesame stalks, then they would enter one of the rivers of Paradise and wash in it, and they would come out looking like sheets of white paper.So we left, and we said to one another, "Woe to you! Do you really think this old man would lie about the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?"We turned back, and by Allah, not one of us went out in revolt except a single man.

عن يزيد الفقير، قال

كنت قد شغفني راع من رأي الخوارج فخرجنا في عصابة ذوي عدد نريد أن نحج، ثم نخرج على الناس. قال: فمررنا على المدينة فإذا جابر بن عبد الله يحدث القوم- جالس إلى سارية- عن رسول الله ﷺ قال: فإذا هو قد ذكر الجهنميين. قال: فقلت له: يا صاحب رسول الله، ما هذا الذي تحدثون؟ والله يقول: {إنك من تدخل النار فقد أخزيته وما للظالمين من أنصار} [سورة آل عمران: ١٩٢] و {واما الذين فسقوا فماواهم النار كلما ارادوا ان يخرجوا منها اعيدوا فيها وقيل لهم ذوقوا عذاب النار الذي كنتم به تكذبون} [سورة السجدة: ٢٠] فما هذا الذي تقولون؟ قال: فقال: أتقرأ القرآن؟ قلت: نعم. قال: فهل سمعت بمقام محمد عليه السلام؟ (يعني الذي بعثه الله فيه). قلت: نعم، قال: فإنه مقام محمد ﷺ المحمود الذي يخرج الله به من يخرج. قال: ثم نعت وضع الصراط ومر الناس عليه. قال: وأخاف أن لا أكون أحفظ ذلك. قال: غير أنه قد زعم أن قوما يخرجون من النار بعد أن يكونوا فيها، قال: يعني فيخرجون كأنهم عيدان السماسم. قال: فيدخلون نهرا من أنهار الجنة، فيغسلون فيه، فيخرجون كأنهم القراطيس. فخرجنا قلنا: ويحكم! أترون الشيخ يكذب على رسول الله ﷺ؟ فرجعنا، فلا والله ما خرج منا غير رجل واحد.
