Maverick eh? Okay, let's talk business, how about we hire your services?
Although we find your razor sharp posts and sledgehammer approach alarming at times, this could also be a useful tool that we would be willing to compensate you handsomely for. After all, you are a good God-fearing man who would want to stand up to inequity and make some wealth at the same time, yes?

Re: The Ummah's three biggest problems
OP:
1.Lack of Sacred Knowledge
2. Lack of Role models who'd implement that Knowledge in their practical lives.
3.Lack of Good Scholars who prohibit takfiring.

Point three, do you even know anything about takfir? People indeed have gone to extremes in this regards, but there are conditions and takfir is part of islam.
Please consider applying point one on yourself with regards to point 3. Thanks.

Coated within your supposed sarcasm is the insinuation that I somehow support a position which is extreme or narrow minded. More arrogant eurocentric banter. pshttt.
On an actual serious note: We shouldn't speak about things without knowledge.

I agreed with the first part of the statement but the second part of your statement doesn't sit quiet right with me..only because what I know that
As Sheikh Nuh Keller says, " There is wide scholarly consensus on this tolerance of Islam, and we have heard from Imam Ash'ari that he did not consider anyone who prayed towards the qibla to be an unbeliever, from Razi that he did not consider anyone to be an unbeliever whose words could possibly mean anything besides, and from Ibn Taymiya that he considered everyone who faithfully prays with ablution to be a believer. None of them believed that a Muslim can go to hell on a technicality."
so really, making takfir is necessary?
..and Allah knows best.

Sister you have been bamboozled by the bamboozler.
As for Imam ar-Razi (ra) and Imam Ashari (ra), you should know that they went through stages in their life, and you should only take what came from them in their last stage, when they were upon the Sunnah. Having said that, what you conveyed from them does not seem to negate takfeer in any case. In regards to what you conveyed, that he said "whose words could possibly mean anything besides", then so what? This does not negate Takfeer! It merely means that when there is doubt, then we do not engage in takfeer of an individual. And this is well known, that we look for clear and explicit proof of kufr and apostasy. This does NOT in ANY way mean that there is no takfeer at all.
As for Ibn Taymiyyah (ra), you said that he said "anyone who faithfully prays"...
You know the hadeeth about whoever says the kalima sincerely is a Muslim, READ WHAT THE SCHOLARS SAY ABOUT THIS HADEETH.
There are seven conditions which must be met in order for this kalima to be accepted.
Read here:
Islam Question and Answer - The Conditions of the Testimony of Faith
So the same is said about the one who does prayer. Conditions must be met.
The Qadianis face Qiblah! Do you consider them Muslims when they also face the Qiblah!
It is well known that the Imams of Ahl as-Sunnah have done takfeer, including the ones you mentioned. This should negate your position that there is no takfeer! For example, Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (ra) did takfeer on the one who claims that the Quran is tampered with, even if that person prays !!!

Sister, if you deny takfeer, then you would become like the Murjia, a sect which is outside the folds of Ahl as-Sunnah, and one of the accursed sects.
Do not go to excess!
Takfeer is a part of Islam. Excessive takfeer is not.
The scholars said: After looking at the mentioned book, it was found that it contains what was said (by IbraheemAl-Hamadaani), as it establishes and calls for Murji’ah Math-hab, that is there is no Kufr except that of Juhood (rejection) and Tak-theeb (Belying). It also introduces this cursed Math-hab as if it were the Math-hab of As-Sunnah, All of that is Jahl (ignorance) of the truth and Talbees (mixing the facts with fantasies) and it is also Tadh-leel (misguiding) for the brains of the youth, making it look as if it were the saying of the Salaf of the Ummah and its knowledgeable scholars.
Yet it is the Math-hab of the Murji-ah, who claim that no Sin should harm, once Iman is there. And Iman, in there view, is the belief of the heart, and Kufr is Tak-theeb (belying) and this is an extreme in looseness.
On the opposite, there is the invalid Math-hab Al-Khawarij, which is an extreme of lightening, regarding Takfeer. Both of the two Math-habs are invalid and rejected as ways of misguidance.
Allaah has guided the Ahlus-Sunnah Wal-Jamaa’ah to the correct saying and true way and to the middle belief between the two extremes, They preserve the ‘Erd of the Muslim and his religion and they believe that a Muslim should not be made a Kafir except when it is truly supported by Daleel (evidence), They also believe that Kufr is established through: saying, actions/leaving actions, belief and/or suspicion, all the proofs from the Book of Allaah and the Sunnah are gathered to support that.
