The ruling on mentioning the treatise on the life of al-Khidr in the collected fatwas of Ibn Taymiyyah

Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: I heard from one of the people that in the collected fatwas of Ibn Taymiyyah (may Allah have mercy on him), he was asked about al-Khidr, whether he is alive or dead? So he answered that he is alive.

Answer:
Yes, so it is a treatise that Ibn Qasim (may Allah have mercy on him) composed, and he composed another treatise that contradicts it, which is the correct one: that he is not alive, rather he is dead. So placing the treatise on the life of al-Khidr in the collection is an error on the part of the compiler (may Allah have mercy on him). Yes. He intends to write down everything, everything he found regarding Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah without verification, and this is not acceptable. In any case, this is a minor error, may Allah forgive him, a minor error. And as long as he mentioned the correct treatise, his conscience is clear. Yes.
