Ibn Al Wazeer may Allah have mercy upon him, after he mentioned the Hadiths which
forbid Takfeer on a Muslim, said: "In all of that, there is what testifies to the correctness
in being harsh against the Takfeer on a believer and removing him from Islam if he has
testified to Tawheed and the Prophethood especially if he has established the pillars of
Islam and avoided the major sins and there are signs of his truthfulness in his belief due
to his mistake in an innovation from which the one who makes Takfeer on him may not
himself be safe from what is similar to it or close to it. Indeed infallibility has gone up 13
and due to a man’s thinking good of himself, he would not be safe from that either
intellectually or by the Shareeah. Rather the people of innovation are mostly very pleased
with themselves and consider their innovation to be good”…until the ending of his
valuable statement. [Ar Raud Al Baasim Fee Zabb An Sunnah Abil Qasim P.425]
Al Qadi Iyaad - may Allah have mercy on him - said: "Know, that making this judgement
and removing the misconceptions in it are based on the Shareeah and there is no place for
the mind in it" As Shafa 2/282
And Ibn Taymiyyah may Allah have mercy on him, said "Kufr is a Shariah ruling which
is received from the owner of the Shariah (Allah) and the mind may be used to know the
correct saying and the wrong one. And not everything which is a mistake in the mind is
Kufr in the Shariah, just like how that which is correct in the mind need not be
recognized by the Shariah (Dar’eu Ta'aarud Al Aql Wal Naql 1/242)
And Ibn Taymiyyah said - may Allah have mercy on him - "And the one whose Islam is
established with certainty, it does not depart from him based on doubts, rather it does not
depart except after establishing the Hujjah (undisputable proofs) and removing the
doubts. And if that has been become clear, then know that the issues of Takfeer and
Tafseeq (declaring someone a fasiq, major sinner) are issues of labeling names and rules
which are related to the promise (of Jannah, paradise) or threat (of the hellfire) in the
hereafter. And they are related to loyalty and enmity and killing and protection (of blood,
wealth and honour) and other than that in this worldly abode since Allah glory be to Him
has made paradise compulsory for the believers and forbidden for the disbelievers. And
this is from the fundamental rules in every time and place. (Majmoo al Fataawa 12/468)
And Ibn Taymiyyah also said: “A mistake in applying the name of Imaan is not like a
mistake in (applying) an innovated name and not like the mistake in other names, as the
rulings in this world and the hereafter are connected with the name of Imaan and Islam
and Kufr and Nifaq (hypocrisy)" (Majmoo al Fataawa 7/395) and refer (13/58)
