What is the Sharia's stance on those accused of being Kharijites, even though they do not excommunicate perpetrators of major sins nor the Companions, but rather seek to avenge them?

The questioner is advised to engage in beneficial knowledge and righteous deeds, for not everyone who rebels against the ruler is described as a Khariji, unless their rebellion stems from a belief. The Khawarij separate from the Muslim community and deem their blood and wealth permissible based on their excommunication [of Muslims]. They have categorized people into only two types: a pious righteous person or a wicked wretched sinner.
