But aside from that,I disagree with the book and am more than willing to discuss it.
And Allah knows best.
I like to call myself as a Muslim instead of following a particular sect or a set of scholars. It, in most of the cases, entails shirk fil risalat where the scholars are elevated as infallible.
I respect all the scholars of all the sects. I take what is good and leave what is bad.
Sh ibn taimiyya and sh ibn qayyim both are respectable scholars.
This book is based on criticism of classification of tawheed, a new invented idea as proven by the author but you disagree to it.
This kind of discussion should be done in segregated section instead of open forum.
Will you start another thread there...?

Oh... You are back after a long time. I didnot notice that we have already discussed this kind of disputed issue there. Your still the same....!
Anyways, resume that thread, instead of starting a new one.
