The ruling on studying with those who add to the oneness of Allah in sovereignty

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is it permissible to study some books with some people who pray, or whose prayer is valid, regarding the concept of the periodic ruling, which is the denial of the ruling, and is it permissible to study with them some rare books on tafsir (exegesis)?

Answer:
These people are misguided, because this addition is not valid, and it is an addition that has no basis in the Book of Allah or in His Sunnah. The oneness of Allah in ruling by what He has revealed is included in tawhid al-uluhiyyah (oneness of worship), included in tawhid al-uluhiyyah in terms of obedience to the Creator; the created being worships Allah by resorting to His Book and submitting to His commands, Blessed and Exalted is He. It is also included in tawhid al-rububiyyah (oneness of lordship) in that Allah is the Commanding, the Wise, the Legislator. The oneness of Allah in sovereignty is included in tawhid al-uluhiyyah and included in tawhid al-rububiyyah, and it is not a separate, independent category.
If they do not retract this statement, one should not study with them, meaning that perhaps they have other ideas besides this which they impart to those who learn from them. If the evidence is established against them and they do not stop, one must seek to study with others. That is it. Yes.
