Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Some scholars cited the hadith of the one who was ordered to be left in the air as evidence for being excused by ignorance. And some scholars said that he only condemned a type of image that was hidden from him. He says: There is no excuse for ignorance. Ignorance is an excuse if it is if it is not possible for him to learn and there is no one with him who can teach him.
Answer:
He is excused for ignorance until someone is found to teach him and explain it to him.[Al-Isra 17:15]. [Al-Isra 17:15]. Yes.
