2 Mar 2021Monday Nights with Mufti Abu Layth Who was the blind narrator of the return hadith who relied on his slave girl? One transmitter of the return reports went blind, lost his memory and relied on his slave girl to check his hadith, which Mufti Abu Layth says shows the state of some of these narrators.

30 Aug 2018BukhariGate: Issues with Sahih al-Bukhari Bukhari in his own chain, and the other students whose copies did not reach us Sahih al-Bukhari reaches us through Farabri alone, although other students transmitted it. Nasafi's copy survives only in a summary of twelve hundred hadith, little of Hammad ibn Shakir's remains, Bazdawi's did not reach us, and Bukhari even appears in a chain in his own book.

30 Aug 2018BukhariGate: Issues with Sahih al-Bukhari Who vouched for Farabri? Baji, Sam'ani and whether transmission implies reliability Nobody who knew Farabri declared him reliable, and the attributions to al-Baji and al-Sam'ani cannot be found in their works. That scholars transmitted from him proves nothing, since transmission is not endorsement.

15 Apr 2018Debunking Myths On: Jinns, Magic, the Evil Eye, and Superstitions Where the story came from: polemic, the poisoning report and the ajwa dates Mufti Abu Layth believes the story is misconstrued, possibly fed by polemical rumours of the time, and notes it contradicts the hadith that ajwa dates protect from magic.

21 Feb 2018Responding to Refutations Is the chain Hammad ibn Salama from Thabit from Anas for the crying-tree hadith sound? Mufti Abu Layth argues it is not: critics report that Hammad ibn Salama's memory failed late in life, that Bukhari did not transmit from him, and that Thabit was not the most reliable transmitter from Anas, Qatada and Humayd al-Tawil being ranked above him.
