The ruling on saying that the Prophet made a mistake in some means of da'wah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: May Allah reward you and raise your status. What is the ruling on my saying that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) made a mistake in some means of da'wah?

Answer:
We ask Allah for well-being. The one who says that the Messenger made a mistake in the means of da'wah is considered to have committed apostasy from Islam. The one who attributes a mistake to the Messenger in his Shari'ah and what he brought is an apostate from Islam. We ask Allah for well-being. However, if one says, "I made a mistake in following the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)," or "Such-and-such a group made a mistake in following the Messenger and in calling to Allah," then the one who makes a mistake is not the Messenger; the one who makes a mistake is the people. Yes.
