Guidance for students of knowledge who are preoccupied with declaring scholars to be innovators

Question:
Perhaps we will conclude, may Allah reward you, with this question. He says: What is your guidance, Honorable Shaykh, for some of the students of knowledge who have become preoccupied with speaking about some of the Rabban scholars and some of the students of knowledge, criticizing them and declaring them to be innovators, such as the one who declared the Honorable Shaykh Abdullah ibn Jibril (may Allah have mercy on him) and others to be innovators? What is your guidance for all of these people? May Allah reward you.

Answer:
This is from fitnah (trial, discord or temptation), and I seek refuge in Allah. This is from fitnah and from Shaytan. It is obligatory for them to seek knowledge from the scholars and not to occupy themselves with declaring people innovators, interpreting texts, or declaring people disbelievers. They should occupy themselves with seeking knowledge, and after they have obtained beneficial knowledge, they will know what bid'ah (religious innovation) is, what the Sunnah is, who the innovator is, and who the follower of the Sunnah is, if they learn. As for now, they are still students of knowledge or beginners. They should not occupy themselves with these matters, nor listen to those who promote them, who sow discord among the people. Yes.
