Are people who only offer 8 rakahs of tarawih and reject the ijma of Sahaba considered Muslim/Momin or outside of Islam?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Darulifta-Deoband.com
My question is that what is the position of people who offer tarawih 8 rakah only by rejecting the ijma of Sahaba, so what we call them? Are they Muslim/Momin or out of Islam?

Answer

(Fatwa: 47/47/M=1434)

They are Ghair Muqallidin. They are not out of the fold of Islam; rather they are out of Ahl Sunnah al-Jamah.
