Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: I heard about a group called Ahl al-Tawqif. He asks: Are they on the right path?

Answer:
No, they are not on the right path. They do not suspend judgment. The ruling is clear, praise be to Allah, from the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). If they do not know, they ask the people of knowledge
So ask the people of the message if you do not know.فَاسْأَلُوا أَهْلَ الذِّكْرِ إِن كُنتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَ
[An-Nahl 16:43]
and do not suspend judgment. If they know, they act according to their knowledge. If they do not know, they ask the people of knowledge and do not suspend judgment. Yes.
