18 Oct 2025MindTrap with Mufti Abu Layth LatestDoes the Quran alone say what breaks the fast? The guest says 2:187 shows that eating, drinking and intercourse break the fast by making them lawful at night; Mufti Abu Layth says the verse does not explicitly forbid them by day, so the Quran-only reader is inferring by reason rather than reporting what God said.

18 Oct 2025MindTrap with Mufti Abu Layth LatestIs the daytime ban on eating and intimacy in Ramadan stated in the Quran or inferred? The daytime prohibition of eating and intimacy in Ramadan comes from 2:187 by mafhum al-mukhalafa, an adverse inference Mufti Abu Layth accepts but which is not the explicit reading, so some verses need the tradition's explanation; the guest says each reader is rewarded according to his understanding.
