2 Mar 2021Monday Nights with Mufti Abu Layth LatestWas Ali born inside the Kaaba? It may have happened but is uncertain, and most likely means the homes of Banu Hashim attached to the Kaaba rather than the cube itself; Ali's greatness does not depend on it.

17 Dec 2019From the Mind of a Mufti Who was Qusayy ibn Kilab and where was he raised? Mufti proposes that Petra shaped early Islam through the Prophet's great-grandfather Qusayy, who was raised as a foreigner in Wadi al-Qura, which Mufti Abu Layth identifies with Petra. Qusayy's name means 'little stranger', and his longing for belonging drew him back to Makkah.

17 Dec 2019From the Mind of a Mufti Why do early Islamic books call the Ka'bah 'the Shami Ka'bah'? Mufti Abu Layth suggests Qusayy, raised in Petra, rebuilt the Ka'bah and settled Quraysh around it in a Shami style, which is why early books call it the Shami Ka'bah. It does not mean the Ka'bah was in Sham. Lessonposition checkedQusayy ibn KilabQurayshKhuza'a [?]Ka'bah machine3 min 55 s10:31on YouTube
17 Dec 2019From the Mind of a Mufti Why did the earliest mosques face Petra instead of Makkah? Most likely, he says, because Muslims inherited Nabataean devotion sites already aligned to Petra's constellation, so Gibson is right about the measurements but wrong that Petra was Makkah. Makkah was called Umm al-Qura, he suggests, after Petra's name, brought by Qusayy. Lessonposition checkedDan GibsonPatricia Cronethe NabataeansQusayy ibn Kilab machine3 min 31 s18:21on YouTube
