Sheik Albani rahimahullah on declaring someone as disbeliever because of him rejecting some of the Hadith's

بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

As for those people who reject some of the hadiths and this was present in the past and now … nowadays one of those who attributes himself to Ahlus-Sunnah and who has become famous for rejecting many authentic Prophetic hadiths is the Egyptian, Azhari Shaikh, Muhammad al-Ghazaali

He does not reject the Sunnah [as a whole], he does not reject hadiths from their very foundation as far as is apparent and Allaah is his Judge, but he rejects many hadiths.

It is not allowed to declare him to be a disbeliever because he never rejected the Sunnah from its foundation, but without doubt, he is not upon guidance from his Lord when he rejected many authentic hadiths which the Ummah has met with acceptance, so he is in manifest misguidance in this regard.

And there is no doubt that when people like him fall into such misguidance he will have many followers in [differing] countries, and I think he used to be a teacher where you are or with some of your neighbour[ing countries], so his infection spread to those near him. So our stance regarding these people is that we advise them and argue with them in a manner that is best.

After we have fulfilled the obligation of advising, directing and educating and they still persist in their clear misguidance we describe them as being misguided and do not increase upon that, i.e., we do not declare them to be disbelievers.
