Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is there a clear rule regarding the excuse of ignorance in actions?
Answer:
Ignorance is of two types. The first is ignorance that cannot be removed, such as when a person is in a place where there are no scholars and nothing has reached him; in this case, he is excused for his ignorance. The second type is ignorance that can be removed if he asks, if he learns, or if he seeks the truth and finds someone to explain it to him. This person is not excused for his ignorance, because the negligence is on his part and the neglect is on his part. Yes.
