Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is the one who denies the wisdom of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), and the one who says that deeds are the price, that deeds are the price of Paradise, a disbeliever for this statement? Because he has attributed to Allah what He did not intend. This is it, this is it.
Answer:
As for the case of taqlid (following a scholar without knowing his evidence), where one is a follower of another or one who engages in ta'wil (figurative interpretation), he is not declared a disbeliever, but he is considered misguided. It is said: This is misguidance. But if he intentionally does it and knows that it is wrong, and they say, "Even if it is wrong, this is it," then this is disbelief. But if he did not intentionally do this thing, then he is considered misguided and not a disbeliever, because he is either a follower of those who came before him or one who engages in ta'wil. Yes.
