Thawban narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: “I only fear for my Ummah from the misguiding A’immah.” He said that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: “There will never cease to be a group from my Ummah manifest upon the truth, they will not be harmed by those who forsake them until Allah’s Decree comes.”
Jami` at-Tirmidhi, Book 33, Hadith 72
