Warning the student of knowledge against the errors of some scholars

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Is it permissible for a student of knowledge to warn against the errors of some scholars?

Answer:
A student of knowledge means one who is not established in knowledge and does not know; he does not enter into this matter. As for the scholar, if he sees an error in his brother, he points it out to him. If the scholar sees an error in his fellow scholar, he points it out to him. If he complies and returns to the truth, that is fine; otherwise, he refutes him. There is no harm in this. This is the affair of scholars, not the affair of students of knowledge and beginners.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
