Describing the Shaykh al-Islam as having a confused mind

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I heard from some of those who claim to have knowledge that Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (may Allah have mercy on him) had a confused mind,

Answer:
There is no god but Allah. The one who is confused in his mind is this speaker. As for Shaykh al-Islam, he is a great scholar and a major imam. All the sects, even the misguided ones, acknowledged his imamate and his knowledge, the breadth of his argument, and its strength. No one denied this except people who hold a grudge against the da'wah, against tawhid (the oneness of Allah), and against the creed. They began to belittle the scholars and belittle the imams. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
