This brother is claiming I have a high level of ignorance, and with that, I'm teaching people aqeeda.

The irony of it🤦‍♂️.
If there's one thing modern-day Salafis are known for, it's what this bro is accusing me of.

IT's take on the world and God is as follows:
1) the earth is surrounded, from all directions by the sky. Bcoz this is the case, U can't really say the sky is at any point below the earth.
2) The 1st sky is encompassed by the second sky
3) and like that until the throne of Allah_

_which encompasses all the creation
4) God is literally above the throne and is greater in size, and might that the throne
5) there's no issue with him if we ascribe Mumāssah (touching), Julūs (sitting), Thiqal (heaviness) to God
6) God has a hadd (limit) in his Thāt (being)_

_from all directions
7) Whatever direction U point to, God is there bcoz God encompassed all creation with his being
8) God is not in his creation, He is outside his creation, with a literal limit.

All of this can easily be found in the works of IT, especially_

_in درء التعارض و تلبيس الجهمية .
So, if that's the case, how is what I mentioned ignorance?

Am I the first to express this about IT?
No. There's 10s of Aimmah that have mentioned this about IT.

What do I say about the Imam?
In a nutshell, I believe he was an ocean of_

_knowledge, who was devoted to the worship of Allah, he was liked my many, but he deviated away from the Sunni Aqeeda. He criticised many respected Sunni Aimmah, which caused the scholars to turn their attention to him and refute him. He was closer to the Karramiyyah in Aqeeda_

_than the Ahl-Sunna.

As Hāfidh Waliyud Deen 'Iraqi said, after praising him for his Zuhd, 'Ibadah & knowledge:
"علمه أكبر من عقله"
"His knowledge was more than what his brain could comprehend."

Even Imam Dhahabi criticized IT's approach & critisizm in a small work of his :

"النصيحة الذهبية"
Which I recommend u read 👌.

Do I make Takfeer of him?
No. I believe he is under the Mashī'a of Allah, just as Imam Subki mentioned about Ibn Karram.

I also believe he repented from his ways, as was reported by Ibn Hajar in الدرر الكامنة.

Can we benefit from him?
Not for 'Awam or beginners in knowledge.

رحمه الله تعالى وعفا عنا وعنه وختم الله لنا وله بالحسنى.
