The Ruling on Calling a Ruler Who Rules by Man-Made Laws a Taghut

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Is a ruler who rules by man-made laws called a taghut, whether he believes in ruling by them or not? And if so, how is the disbelief of the taghut?

Answer:
This matter requires a detailed explanation, which the scholars have mentioned extensively in its tafsir (exegesis) and elsewhere; one should refer to those works.
