What is your opinion on the author’s method of citing the statement of 'Ata, who is one of the Tabi'un (the generation after the Companions), as evidence?

Question : Shaykh, he cites it and dislikes excessive reliance on the statement of 'Ata. Are the statements of the Tabi'un (the generation after the Companions) considered evidence?

Answer : Yes. The statements of the Tabi'un (the generation after the Companions) are used for guidance but are not considered proof. However, they are used for guidance because 'Ata ibn Abi Rabah is a great and well-known scholar.
