21 Feb 2018Responding to Refutations What does he say to critics who accept that the Prophet was impotent, married a nine-year-old or was bewitched into clumsiness? Mufti Abu Layth says these claims are untrue attacks on the Prophet's honour, resting on reports whose chains he has shown to be defective, and that critics who affirm them to win an argument are themselves being blasphemous. He adds that he does not support capital punishment for such speech. Lessonposition checkedSunni Defence (YouTube channel)Qadi Iyadahl al-hadith mentality [?]consent machine6 min 14 s42:14on YouTube
21 Feb 2018On the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ When and how did Safiyya actually marry the Prophet? She embraced Islam in the months after Khaybar, became interested in the Prophet herself and married him with her consent, not on the night of the battle. Abu Hurayra reported that nothing was taken from Khaybar but clothing, cattle and sheep.

11 Jan 2017Mothers of the Believers: The Wives of the Blessed Prophet ﷺ If ethics change over time, how can today's ethics judge the Prophet's marriage? Base ethics such as the wrongness of harm do not change, and the issue is consent, which a minor cannot give. Mufti Abu Layth does not believe people will ever come to accept otherwise.

11 Jan 2017Mothers of the Believers: The Wives of the Blessed Prophet ﷺ If Aisha's age is a problem, aren't polygamy and the Prophet's wars problems too? Polygamy and the Prophet's wars are not irrational and differ from marrying a child, where consent is impossible. Mufti Abu Layth says the Prophet remains a perfect role model and that he does not accept Aisha was that age.
