The sign of an Alim isn't just knowledge it's also knowing the adab of scholarship. An ordinary Muslim making an untrue claim is bad enough far worse is a reputed 'scholar' making claims which he then is forced to withdraw.
I'm not sure whether you're aware but Hamza Yusuf has explicitly stated that he's *not* a Scholar. See for instance the blurb on the back of his earlier DVD's such as 'Dajjal'
Lets not even go into links with Ian Dallas his former father-in-law..

No scholar calls themselves a scholar so that doesn't mean much.
And who cares about Ian Dallas? It's pretty clear that he (along with many others) doesn't associate himself with him anymore.
