14 Mar 2021video Does 'he will speak to people in maturity' or 'before his death' prove that Jesus will return? The verse about Jesus speaking in the cradle and in maturity concerns those he addresses, children and grown men, and the first to read it as a return was al-Husayn ibn al-Fadl, who died in 282 AH and transmitted strange reports. 'Before his death' was recited by Ubayy and Ibn Abbas as 'before their death' and read by commentators as referring to Jesus, the Prophet, the truth or Allah.

2 Mar 2021Monday Nights with Mufti Abu Layth Does the verse about Jesus speaking 'in maturity' mean he will come back? Neither verse proves a return: 'in the cradle and in maturity' refers to the people Jesus addresses, the return reading began with a late transmitter of strange reports, and 'before his death' has several readings.

26 Jan 2021Monday Nights with Mufti Abu Layth How could hadith chains and texts have been standardised over time? Mufti Abu Layth says editors who standardised variant chains and texts, as Ahmad Shakir did with Ibn Jurayj's version, erased how reports were really transmitted, and that this may have happened unnoticed in the classical collections.

12 Jan 2021Monday Nights with Mufti Abu Layth Is the hadith 'if there were a prophet after me it would be Umar' authentic? Mufti Abu Layth says the hadith is a fabrication, made up to glorify Umar; one may revere Umar and still disagree with his opinions.

24 Jul 2019Quick Fiqh! Did men and boys wear earrings in the time of the Prophet and the early Muslims? In the Prophet's society and among the Salaf boys commonly wore earrings, and many considered it sunnah for a boy. Later Sunni clergy prohibited the practice, perhaps influenced by the Christian church, while the Shia kept it alive.

4 May 2019On Current Events Is the hadith about women praying in the darkest part of the house authentic? No: the chains run through unknown, abandoned or weak narrators, so the reports are fabricated or very weak and clash with the sahih hadith.

15 Apr 2018Debunking Myths On: Jinns, Magic, the Evil Eye, and Superstitions Are there authentic hadith showing the Prophet casting out jinn? No report of the Prophet expelling a jinn is free of criticism: the Ya'la ibn Murra and Umm Aban reports are weak, and the sound version of Uthman ibn Abi al-As's story in Sahih Muslim mentions no jinn at all, as al-Nawawi points out. Mufti Abu Layth asks why a Prophet sent as a mercy would never have taught about so common a danger.

20 Sep 2017Debunking Myths On: Jinns, Magic, the Evil Eye, and Superstitions Are there authentic hadith of the Prophet casting a jinn out of someone? None of the hadith cited for possession is free of criticism; the only sound version, Uthman ibn Abi al-As in Sahih Muslim, mentions no jinn, as al-Nawawi notes, and the 'come out, enemy of Allah' reports are weak. The Prophet, a mercy to mankind, would not have left such a thing untaught.
