Are books read whose authors have fallen into errors in matters of creed?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this questioner says: How should one deal with some scholars and imams who have made errors in the chapter of the names and attributes? Do we read their books and praise them for it?

Answer:
Do not read books that contain errors in creed and mistakes. Read the clear, evident, and reliable books. Yes, that will suffice you, if Allah wills.
