Among the nullifiers of Islam is contradicting scholarly consensus

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a person does not obey the one in authority and dies in that state, he dies the death of the pre-Islamic age of ignorance. Is this established from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)? And does this include not obeying the scholars?

Answer:
Yes, contradicting scholarly consensus is disbelief. Contradicting scholarly consensus is one of the nullifiers of Islam. Allah the Exalted said: [Q1] This is scholarly consensus, and contradicting it is apostasy from Islam. Yes.
