نقد دیدگاه ابن تیمیه در باب تقیه

An inexactitude is found, making comparison amongst Menhaj al-Sunna and Al-Fatavi al-kobra; in Menhaj, Ibn Taymiyyah has considered prevarication as one of the rudiment of Shiites and has confined it to them; then, he has drawn an analogy between that and mendaciousness as well as hypocrisy and has concluded that the fundamental beliefs of Shiite is not trustable. Whereas, he, personally, has entitled prudential lying and reluctantly prevarication, while it is an undeniable contradiction; the generality of the deprecation of lying is not corroborated, owing to the fact that prudential lying is permitted (as he has mentioned) and prevarication is of this sort. Moreover, weighing mendaciousness and prevarication identically, is a fallacy, since the former one is a declaration of faith in addition to the disguise of infidelity, while prevarication is in contradiction with this. Furthermore, the sayings of Menhaj is incompatible with the verses of the holy Quran. The holy verses consider prevarication permissible unequivocally, parenthetically or reportedly, besides the words of Sunni interpreters are demonstratives of this effectual fact. Ergo, prevarication is not particularly for Shiites and is accepted and employed amongst not only all Muslims but the scholars as well.
