Shaykh Muhammad Qutb said, “Ibn Abbas has been wronged (oppressed) because he said what he said when he was asked about Banee Umayah and if they were ruling by other than what Allaah revealed. They (the Khawarij) asked, ‘What do we say about them (Banee Umayah)?’ No one has said the Banee Umaayaah were Kuffar because the used to rule with the Sharee’ah in the general lives of the people but they went away from it in some of the matters that had to do with their Sultaaneeyah either out of misunderstandings or due to their desires. However, they never made their disobedience a part of legislation that would oppose the Sharee’ah of Allaah. So Ibn Abbas said about them, ‘It (the actions of Banee Umayah) is Kufr dun Kufr.’ Would it even be possible for Ibn Abbas to say this about those whom erase the Islamic Sharee’ah from its origin and replace it with man-made laws?” (“Waq’iunah Al- Ma’asr” Pg. 334)
