15 Mar 2021video What actually separates Sunnis and Shia, and is mut'ah really a Shia thing? The Sunni-Shia split is only about who has the right to rule, the Shia holding it stays in the Prophet's bloodline. Mut'ah and wiping the feet have nothing to do with being Shia; Sunnis used them as propaganda.

16 Feb 2021Monday Nights with Mufti Abu Layth Why isn't the Mufti a Mu'tazili? Mufti Abu Layth says he is simply Sunni; sects are defined by core doctrines, the Shia by the sacred bloodline's right to rule, and mut'ah was pinned on them as propaganda.

5 Jan 2021Monday Nights with Mufti Abu Layth Is it haram for a mother to kiss her child on the lips? There is nothing haram in a mother kissing her child; he says the haram lies in the perverted comments, and the Prophet kissed his grandsons.

16 Oct 2020video Why did Hasan ibn Ali give up the caliphate to Muawiya?

24 Jul 2019Quick Fiqh! Did Hasan and Husayn wear earrings? Ibn Abbas lists piercing the ear among seven sunnahs for a newborn boy, and Hasan and Husayn had their ears pierced and wore earrings, Husayn wearing two. The reports come through Imam Jafar al-Sadiq's chain and an eyewitness account from Karbala.

24 Jul 2019Quick Fiqh! Can reports from Shia sources about Hasan and Husayn be trusted? Mufti Abu Layth accepts the reports as factual, saying the Shia had no reason to invent earrings for their own Imams, and calls it hypocrisy that Sunnis accept Imran ibn Hittan, a Khariji who praised Ali's killer, as a narrator in Sahih al-Bukhari while rejecting anything from Imam Jafar al-Sadiq.

24 Jul 2019Quick Fiqh! Is it haram for a man to wear an earring? No: men's earrings are permissible, with the precedent of Hasan, Husayn, Imam Malik and Sufyan ibn Uyayna, and the later scholars who opposed them were likely influenced by outside traditions. Mufti Abu Layth accepts that others may call it haram but says the evidence speaks for itself.

29 Sep 2017From the Mind of a Mufti Is it wrong to be attracted to someone because of their status or position? Attraction to status and relationships between people who work closely together are natural, not abuse, and Islam leaves consensual relationships to the people involved. Mufti Abu Layth cites Hasan ibn Ali, al-Mughira ibn Shu'ba and Ibn Hazm as figures whose private lives did not disqualify them.
