What is the validity of the Islam of one who embraced Islam at the hands of the grave worshippers and the people of innovation?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: One who embraced Islam at the hands of the grave worshippers and the people of innovation, and he thinks that this is Islam, is his Islam considered valid?

The Shaykh:
No, he is the one who fell short. Why did he not go to the people of knowledge to ask them about the correct Islam? Why does he limit himself to the ignorant and the liars? Who is this person who is the divider of the Book?

The presenter:
Yes.

The Shaykh:
Who is the Book?

The presenter:
The one it is annotated upon.

The Shaykh:
Yes.

The presenter:
Thank you.

The Shaykh:
First, did you see it?

The presenter:
The book is *Al-Durr al-Nadid fi Ikhlas Kalimat al-Tawhid* (The Strung Pearls in the Sincerity of the Word of Tawhid). *Al-Durr al-Nadid* is a book that a person named Abu Abdullah al-Halabi annotated.

The Shaykh:
Yes, they have ignorance in this matter. May Allah forgive us and them. They say things without having knowledge, meaning they do not have knowledge in this affair. They are only lovers of good and have a desire for good, but ignorance is a calamity.
