The ruling on the statement that the Prophet makes errors in his independent legal reasoning

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on the one who says that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) makes errors in some of his independent legal reasoning? Is this statement correct?

Answer:
Makes errors in some of his independent legal reasoning. This is not correct. This Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) does not issue a ruling except with what is revealed to him from the revelation. If he is asked about something and he does not have it, and nothing has been revealed to him, he delays the answer. If nothing has been revealed to him, he delays the answer until something is revealed to him. Yes.
