Ijti Is a Universalist View of Taklid Belief

In the islamic west, or mareb, we find the moroccan scholar, mohammed iuse a sanusi, taking an even stronger line against taklid. He lays down a blanket band against even for ordinary believers. This universalist view has been discussed in a recent book by haled aruaheb who explains that every moslem must master the basics of asharite theology. Every one has the responsibility to engage in inquiry so as to reach certainty and those who don't are unbelievers.
