18 Oct 2025MindTrap with Mufti Abu Layth How do Muslims know how to pray if the Quran does not spell it out? Mufti Abu Layth says Muslims know how to pray from an unbroken living tradition of more than 1,400 years, father to child, documented in the books of every century; the guest asks why God describes prayer in the Quran if it must be learned at the mosque, and why two prayers are silent when 17:110 forbids silence.

18 Oct 2025MindTrap with Mufti Abu Layth Why are two of the daily prayers recited silently when 17:110 says not to be silent? The silent prayers come from the living tradition Malik described, handed down from the Companions' descendants; Mufti Abu Layth reads 17:110 as being about crying out to Allah, neither in despair nor in silence, rather than the five prayers, citing 8:35 where 'prayer' means whistling and clapping.
