The Ruling on Citing Taqlid (Following a Scholar Without Knowing His Evidence) of an Imam When Mentioning Evidence

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Some people, when you mention to them evidence from the Book and the Sunnah, say, "I follow the such-and-such imam from the four imams, and he knows the evidence better than I do." What is the guidance in this matter? May Allah grant you success.

Answer:
This is a liar; he follows one of the imams and he says this statement. Yes.
