ON THE ONE WHO MAKES TAKFEER OF THE RULERS AND CALLS TO REVOLT
Question:
Is the one who makes takfeer of the rulers and encourages the Muslims to revolt against their rulers, to be considered from the Khawaarij?
Answer:
This is the madhab of the Khawaarij. When an individual holds it permissible to revolt against the Muslim rulers, and more severe than that is to declare them to be disbelievers. This is the madhab of the Khawaarij .
