13 Apr 2021Monday Nights with Mufti Abu Layth LatestCan I skip fasting because of work, exams or health, and what do I do instead? It is your call: make the fast up later if you can, or give fidya if your situation will not change, which Mufti Abu Layth bases on the plain wording of Quran 2:184.

12 Jan 2021Monday Nights with Mufti Abu Layth Why do you call yourself a Maliki?

18 Sep 2019From the Mind of a Mufti Why is everything permissible by default in Islamic law unless proven haram? By default everything is conclusively permissible, since Allah created everything on earth for us and what He was silent about is pardoned, and that certainty can only be removed by certainty, not by a hadith that remains probable. So Mufti Abu Layth does not declare music halal; Allah has, and the evidence against it falls short of overturning that.

13 Mar 2018Islamic Eschatology Ibn Ashur, al-Shatibi and Ibn Khaldun on the Mahdi: a discussion within Islam Ibn Ashur, al-Shatibi and Ibn Khaldun all problematised the Mahdi reports and treated such matters as information rather than creed; Mufti Abu Layth says the return of Jesus is a discussion within Islam.
