The most that can be said is that the said Sheikh infringed upon this Da'wah, he oppressed this Da'wah, but we cannot overstep the mark and accuse him of things

These issues relating to the subject of Jarh wa ta'deel should be referred to their rightful people; the sincere advisors from amongst the scholars, those who have wara’ and Taqwa.
And I would always repeat when I was in Dammaj, in Makkah and in Yemen, that the issues of tabdee', tafseeq and takfeer are not open to everyone, rather they are for the scholars. That is why you find the scholars saying, “Imams of Jarh wa ta’deel”, ”Scholars of Jarh wa ta’deel.” We don't find them explicitly stating: "Taalib Jarh wa ta'deel". There is no such thing. The role of a taalib is merely to take what the scholars have said and convey their speech. His role is to spread the speech of the scholars. He stops at the limit that the scholars have drawn for him; Those whom Allāh has made as gaurdians over the Shari’ah.
But you find those who transgress the limits disparaging, endorsing, passing judgements, and eventually even making tabdee on his own brothers, as is the case with many of those whom we may have advised, whether in Yemen or outside Yemen.
The point being, we advice our Salafi brothers in Britain, Canada, America, and in all other Islamic countries, to fear Allāh Almighty and not to transgress in rulings, and not to cause agitation among the Salafees, which may lead to Fitnah, disagreement, disunity, boycotting and alienation. Let everyone come together to warn against falsehood and the people of falsehood and the misguided innovators.
As for causing rifts inside the Da'wah; this one accuses the other of being a mumayyi', and the other counters by accusing them of ghuluww; this is inappropriate.
We have no mumayyi' nor any people of ghuluww in the Da'wah. The person of ghuluww will eventually leave just as the mumayyi' will leave. The Salafi Da'wah only accepts those who are on the pleasing path. It is like a sweeping torrent, whoever falls sick is expelled and rejected; whether his illness was due to ghuluww or his illness was due to harshness. No one remains firm in this Da'wah except those who adhere to the manhaj of the Salaf, may Allāh be pleased with them; those who follow the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ; who adhere to his way and his guidance; who do not transgress the limits neither in theoretical matters nor in practical matters.
