The innovators are like scorpions...

Imaam al-Barbahaaree (rahima-hullaah) mentions:

((The innovators are like scorpions.

They bury their heads and bodies in the sand and leave their tails out.

When they get the chance they sting; the same with the innovators who conceal themselves amongst the people, when they are able, they do what they desire)).

Reported in ((Tabaqaatul-Hanaabilah)) - Volume 2, Page 44 and ((Manhajul-Ahmad))
