Who has a right

Who has a right to do takfeer?
Shaykh 'Ali al-Khudayr
Question: Who has the right to do takfeer of
a specific person? Is it permissable for a normal person to do specific
takfeer of a person who fell into clear kufr, if he knows
the principles of takfeer and its obstacles? Or do we say to him:
no, don't do so, and leave this for the judge, mufti and the
followed scholar?
Answer: As you mentioned, the normal person who knows
the principles of takfeer and its obstacles has the right to do
takfeer.
This is what the we have seen since the time of the Messenger,
sallallahu 'alayhi wa salam, to this age.
As for the one who does not know, then it is not permissable for him,
'Whoever says to his brother "O Kaafir", then one of them has fallen
into it'.
And takfeer is not from the particulars of the judge,
mufti or scholar. It is wrong to believe so.
