Are some of the grave worshippers excused due to their ignorance?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: In our country, in Africa, there are some grave worshippers. Or rather, many grave worshippers, yes. Those who seek intercession through the dead and call upon them, and they do not have a correct knowledge of Islam. So do we excuse them for this ignorance, since many of them do not read the Qur'an or the Sunnah, but rather they are occupied with the awliya (close friends of Allah) and the shaykhs?

Answer:
Why does he turn away from the Qur'an when he hears it, turning away from it and remaining as he is? The proof has been established against him, but he does not want it. If the Qur'an reaches a person who is an Arab, the proof is established against him. To warn you with it,
And this Qur'an was revealed to me that I may warn you thereby andوَأُوحِيَ إِلَيَّ هَٰذَا الْقُرْآنُ لِأُنذِرَكُم بِهِ وَمَن
[Al-An'am 6:19]
the Qur'an has reached you, and the proof is established against the servants. Yes.
