▪️And those that strive with effort to ward the title Mushrik from those that worship other than Allah of those that ascribe to Islam, they only have been afflicted from the angle of falling short of understanding the reality of what the people of Shirk are upon, and what has pushed them being in this condition, and in the clarification of this the Allaamah Abdurrahman bin Naasir As-Sa'di, may Allah have mercy upon him said in explanation of the statement of the most high:
(بَلْ أَكْثَرُهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ ٱلْحَقَّۖ)
"But most of them do not know the truth".
[Al-Anbiya:24]:
"I.e: They only did what they were upon due to blindfollowing their predecessors without knowledge or guidance, and their lack of knowing the truth isn't due to its being obscured or vague, it only was due to them turning away from it, because if they were to have turned to it to the least degree, the truth would've become clear from the falsehood, in a manifest and clear manner, and for this reason He said:
(فَهُم مُّعْرِضُونَ)
"so they are turning away".
[Al-Anbiya:24]. End of speech from <Tayseer Al-Kareem Ar-Rahman>.
This is due to those that take something other than the correct beliefs as a creed [it is a must that they find crevices and cracks in their creed which clarifies to them the faultiness of the methodology that they are upon in their beliefs]. (1)
But as [the cause of the ignorance and falling short in knowledge stemmed from what they were accustomed to, the calamity grabbed hold and the affliction settled, the transitioning away from what become a custom and desired is from the greatest affairs in existence, and the most difficult affairs upon the nafs, if it didn't conflict with something very strong within oneself, something great in power and strength:
-regardless if this affair was something external: like force and being overcome and fighting and imprisonment: "Amazing are a people who will enter into Jannah in chains".
- or an internal affair or an godly influence: like success and having a light casted in the heart, and a direction like the direction of the heart. This type is rarer than what preceded it, as it comes in the Hadith of Ibn Abbas when the nation's were shown to the Prophet ﷺ and he ﷺ saw: "He saw a prophet who didn't have anyone with him, and he saw a prophet with one man with him and two men, and a prophet with a band of people (three or seven to ten)". Until the end of the Hadith]. (2)
Ash-Shawkaani, may Allah have mercy upon him, said: "Whoever falls into Shirk isn't excused, because the evidence has been established upon the entire creation through the sending of the Prophet ﷺ, so whoever was ignorant then they only did it to themselves due to turning away from the Book and the Sunnah, because it contains a clear clarification, as He said regarding the Qur'an:
(تِبْيَٰنًا لِّكُلِّ شَىْءٍ وَهُدًى وَرَحْمَةً وَبُشْرَىٰ لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ)
"as clarification for all things and as guidance and mercy and good tidings for the Muslims".
[An-Nahl:89]
And similarly the Sunnah:
Abu Dhar said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed away and he didn't leave a bird flying in the sky except that he mentioned to us some knowledge concerning it. Or with words to this effect, may Allah be pleased with him, so whoever was ignorant then it's due to their turning away, and none are excuse for turning away". <Al-Ajwibatul-Shawkaaniyyah...> (p.39-40).

1) From <Irshaadus-Saari...Sharh As-Sunnah Lil-Imam Al-Barbahaari> by the Allamaah Ahmad An-Najmi, may Allah have mercy upon him.
2) From <Manhaaj At-Ta'sees...> (p.12) by Imam Abdullateef bin Abdirrahman Aal Ash-Shaykh, may Allah have mercy upon them all.
