26 Jun 2020MindTrap with Mufti Abu Layth Can hadith be sifted with criteria, or must the whole corpus be rejected? Mufti Abu Layth says the Prophet's practice survives as a living tradition in fiqh and that he accepts a hadith only if it passes reason, the texts and the principles. The guest replies that narrators who fabricated a stoning verse forfeit all credibility, like a false witness in the Quran.

19 Jun 2020MindTrap with Mufti Abu Layth Was there ever a verse of stoning in the Quran, and does stoning still apply? The guest says Umar's 'verse of rajm' refers to the muharaba verse 5:33, from which exemplary punishment including stoning derives, and that it still applies to extreme crimes under strict conditions. Mufti Abu Layth holds that the Prophet only condoned stoning from Jewish practice until the lashing verse, and that under Maliki scholars like al-Burzuli the hudud change with the age.
