Question:
This questioner says: Did the scholars differ on the issue of the excuse of ignorance, or is it a matter of consensus?
Answer:
No, the excuse of ignorance—ignorance for which its owner is excused—is not a matter of disagreement. But ignorance for which its owner is not excused; regarding this, there is no consideration of disagreement. Considering disagreement in this requires a criterion. If they define ignorance as all ignorance and everything known, this is not valid. Ignorance has limits, places, and criteria. Yes.
