11 Dec 2020MindTrap with Mufti Abu Layth Does traditional orthodoxy lead to extremism? The guest says today's orthodoxy promotes reactionary conservatism that can mutate into groups like the Taliban and ISIS, and proposes reviving the philosophers, Mu'tazila and modernists; Mufti Abu Layth agrees some non-violent groups create a springboard for extremism.

2 Sep 2020video What is the background to the feud between Daniel Haqiqatjou and Jonathan Brown? The feud goes back to Haqiqatjou's dismissal from Yaqeen Institute and his replacement by Jonathan Brown; Mufti Abu Layth says Haqiqatjou has since accused Yaqeen of selling out, and he calls his views extreme.

28 Apr 2020video Is it wrong to preach modesty to society? There is nothing wrong with a message about modesty: like avoiding profanity in front of children, social propriety has a place even when one disagrees on details. Tariq Jamil's apology, he says, was big of him. Lessonposition checkedMaulana Tariq Jamilhaya (modesty)Talibanwudu machine2 min 20 s9:52on YouTube
4 May 2019On Current Events Have Muslims really kept women out of mosques for 1,400 years? No: women prayed in mosques from the Prophet's time on and classical scholars held many such views, so the '1,400 years' claim fails; Mufti Abu Layth doubts Haqiqatjou's scholarly training.

20 Oct 2018Responding to Refutations What is Yasir Qadhi's background, and where does the Salafi movement come from? Qadhi's arguments stem from a hard-line Salafi formation, and Wahhabism in Mufti Abu Layth's account is a doctrine of literalism hostile to reason founded by Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab, whom he calls a deviant for permitting the killing and enslavement of Muslims. He traces the Salafi scholars of the 1970s to the movement behind the 1979 seizure of Mecca.
