Combining the permissibility of taqlid (following a scholar without knowing his evidence) for the muqallid with the prohibition of taqlid in religion

Question:
This questioner says: I am confused about combining what I heard in the lesson on the six principles of jurisprudence—that if a Muslim is neither an absolute mujtahid (a scholar qualified to derive rulings) nor a mujtahid within a school of jurisprudence, he must be a muqallid (one who follows a scholar without knowing his evidence)—with the statement that taqlid is not permissible in religion?

Answer:
Taqlid is permissible in cases of dire necessity. If you are neither an absolute mujtahid nor a mujtahid within a school of jurisprudence, you become a muqallid without a doubt. You ask the people of knowledge. Allah the Exalted said: This is taqlid, because you will act upon what this scholar you are asking says, and this is taqlid. This is, therefore, from Allah regarding taqlid. Yes.
