Dear Mufti Saheb, What is the status of belief of the the Scholars on Imam Ibn Taymiyyah
Answer
Shaykh Taqi-u-ddin Ahmad ibn Taymiyah was a prominent Aalim (scholar) of Deen. Shaykh Taqi-u-ddin had his independent views on many matters based on his vast knowledge and research. It is incorrect for non-scholars and non-academics to pass a judgment especially on such learned people. They should fear Allah and abstain from engaging themselves in such discussions. Differences of opinion is a salient feature among the Ulama-e-Haqq (true scholars).
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
