Do the Mu'tazilah and the Jahmiyyah fall within the sixty or seventy sects?

Question : And the Mu'tazilah fall within. They fall within.

Answer : Yes, except for those among them who are declared disbelievers, because some of them are considered disbelievers. Everyone who claims allegiance to the qiblah is counted among the Ummah of response, but one may commit an act that constitutes disbelief. Some of the Salaf excluded the Jahmiyyah from this, saying that the Jahmiyyah, even if they face our qiblah and slaughter our sacrificial animals, are not of us.
