14 Mar 2021video Is there a single hadith on Jesus's return with an unproblematic chain? Every chain Mufti Abu Layth examined for the strongest reports in Bukhari and Muslim contains a criticised narrator, so Qadhi's claim that they leave no doubt fails; accepting a report because al-Bukhari included it, while ignoring critics who were his equals or seniors, is arbitrary.

14 Mar 2021video Can the hadith on Jesus's return be questioned, and how many of them depend on Abu Hurayra? Reports that go against reason can be questioned, and not one unquestionable hadith establishes the return: eighty percent of them come through Abu Hurayra alone, about half through one man, and the other companions cited are obscure. Mufti Abu Layth promises a continuing series, Disclosure with a big D. Lessonposition checkedAbu Hurayraal-Nawwas ibn Sam'anUmar ibn al-KhattabYasir Qadhi machine3 min 48 s2:13:58on YouTube
2 Mar 2021Monday Nights with Mufti Abu Layth Is there a single hadith on Jesus's return with a flawless chain? Every chain he examined among the strongest Bukhari and Muslim reports, including that of al-Nawwas ibn Sam'an, has a criticised narrator, so Qadhi's 'no doubt' fails; preferring al-Bukhari over equal critics is arbitrary.

2 Mar 2021Monday Nights with Mufti Abu Layth Can the hadith about Jesus's return be questioned? No report on the return is beyond question: about eighty percent come through Abu Hurayra and about half through one narrator, none from Abu Bakr, Umar or Ali; the series will continue.
