Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, a questioner says: You mentioned that taqlid (following a scholar without knowing his evidence) is divided into two types. What are they? I see what I see. He says: You mentioned that taqlid is divided into two types. What are they?

Answer:
Taqlid is divided into two types. I say that taqlid is accepting the statement of another without evidence. That is taqlid. Taqlid is only for the common people who do not know; they follow
So ask the people of the message if you do not know.فَاسْأَلُوا أَهْلَ الذِّكْرِ إِن كُنتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَ
[An-Nahl 16:43]
As for the scholars, it is not permissible for them to practice taqlid. It is obligatory for them to research and seek evidence.
