The ruling on one who rejects some of the names and attributes after the evidence has been established against him

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah preserve you, if a person rejects some of the names and attributes, and the evidence is established against him, making his position contradictory, whether he rejects them through figurative interpretation or rejects them absolutely?

Answer:
If the evidence is established against him and he refuses to return, he becomes a disbeliever, because he no longer has an excuse; the evidence has been established against him. But if the evidence has not been established against him, and he remains following others or interpreting [the texts], and the error in his interpretation has not been clarified to him, then he is misguided but not a disbeliever. Most of them are of this type, of this type: they are followers or interpreters, and the truth in this matter has not become clear to them; because they received their beliefs from people who hold these beliefs and insist on them, so they followed them in that, and took what their sheikhs were upon. So they do not reach the level of disbelief; disbelief is excused from them, but it is said that this is misguidance.
