Question:
Why is Sayyid Qutb not declared a disbeliever? Because he insulted the Companions and mentioned inappropriate words about the Prophet of Allah, Musa.

Answer:
In any case, he erred in this, and we do not know what his final state was. Perhaps he was a follower of a scholar (mقلid) who was transmitting from the books of the Shi'ah, so he was a follower of a scholar. We hold a good opinion of him and say that he erred and did not reach the level of disbelief, if Allah wills. Yes.
