The Khawarij and the Mu'tazilah's position on declaring those who commit major sins to be disbelievers

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Does it have to be the case that one commits every major sin in order to be described as being from the Khawarij?

Answer:
Declaring someone a disbeliever for major sins other than shirk (associating partners with Allah) is the position of the Khawarij. This is the methodology of the Khawarij and the Mu'tazilah.
