The Categories of Scholars in Acting Upon Knowledge

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Allah has informed you: Did the scholars of the halal in the past, regarding the statement of Shaykh Muhammad ibn 'Abd al-Wahhab (may Allah have mercy on him), in the previous centuries, were they upon this correct methodology or otherwise?

Answer:
Some were, and some were upon the correct methodology, and some fell short in that. So the scholars, without doubt, are of various categories, all on the same level: some are scholars who act upon their knowledge, and some are scholars who fall short in acting, and may Allah forgive them all. The Hanbalis and others among them: some are scholars who combined knowledge and action, and some are scholars who fell short in action, and may Allah forgive them all. Yes.
