Question:
This questioner says: Is the one who declares a disbeliever (takfir) of the one who commits a nullifier of Islam considered a takfiri?
Answer:
Declaring a disbeliever (takfir) in its right place is not takfirism. If one declares a disbeliever (takfir) of one who deserves it, that is right. And whoever does not declare a disbeliever (takfir) of the disbeliever is himself a disbeliever. One of the nullifiers of Islam is that whoever does not declare a disbeliever (takfir) of the disbeliever is a disbeliever, may Allah protect us from that. As for declaring a disbeliever (takfir) without right, that is what is forbidden. That is the takfir that declares people disbelievers without right. Yes.
