Takfir for Major Sins and the Description of the Khawarij

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is a person required to declare every major sin as disbelief in order to be described as one of the Khawarij?

Answer:
The one who declares disbelief for major sins other than shirk (associating partners with Allah) is from the Khawarij; this is the position of the Khawarij and the Mu'tazilah. Yes.
