Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ حُرَيْثٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنْ حُسَيْنِ بْنِ وَاقِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ مَنْ قَالَ إِنِّي بَرِيءٌ مِنَ الإِسْلاَمِ فَإِنْ كَانَ كَاذِبًا فَهُوَ كَمَا قَالَ وَإِنْ كَانَ صَادِقًا لَمْ يَعُدْ إِلَى الإِسْلاَمِ سَالِمًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

It was narrated from Abdullah ibn Buraydah, from his father, that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ‘Whoever says, “I disavow Islam,” if he is lying, then it is as he said; but if he is truthful, he will not return to Islam safely.’
