19. Takfeer based on the claim that silence regarding the rulers means being pleased with
their Kufr and not considering the case of weakness.
20. Generalizing the rule of Takfeer and its implications upon the wives and children of
the soldiers of shirk and manmade laws or similar such Murtadeen, and not considering
the case of weakness.
21. Not differentiating the implications of Takfeer between the Kaafir who has power and
between the powerless one who has been subjugated.
Point of note: - There is a difference between apostasy that does not fight against Islam
and between apostasy that fights against Islam.
22. Takfeer on everyone who works in a job under the disbelieving governments without
examining the details.
23. Takfeer on everyone who seeks help from the Tawagheet or their helpers or goes to
their courts in the absence of Islamic authority, without considering the details. 51
24. Not differentiating between following the administrative systems and going to them
for judgement and between seeking judgement from the Kufr legislation.
Two points:
Differentiating between criticizing the legislators of our times unrestrictedly, including
those amongst them who legislate the administrative system on the one hand and those
who abide by those systems out of fear or by having interpretations.
Differentiating between criticizing unrestrictedly the one who legislates laws even if it
matches with the Shareeah due to them originating from the legal documents of the
Thaghout in their legislation and between the one who seeks judgement from or judges
by them thinking that they agree with the Shareeah.
25. Not differentiating between judging by other than what Allah has sent down and
between avoiding some of the judgements of Allah sometimes in practice which is a sin.
26. Takfeer on all those who participate in elections without looking at the details. 52
