Ibn Taymiyyah
He was known to admire Ibn Taymiyyah as proven in his book ar-radd al waafir on page 245 where he said,”Whosoever says Ibn Taymiyyah is a kafir then he is in reality himself a kafir, and the one who accuses him of heresy is himself a heretic. How is this possible when his works are widely available and there is no hint of deviation or dissension contained therein."
