10 Mar 2023video LatestIs the Muwatta of Imam Malik more authentic than Sahih al-Bukhari? The Muwatta, with Malik's 'golden chain', is arguably the most authentic book of hadith and predates al-Bukhari, though others do not rank it first.

25 Oct 2021video Did Muslims learn how to pray from hadith books? No: the practice of Islam reached us through the living tradition, taught from parent to child, not through hadith collections compiled two centuries later. Quranists are not one group, and many only doubt the accuracy of hadith. Lessonposition checkedQuranist (Quran-only)SunniSufiSalafi machine2 min 37 s4:30on YouTube
22 Apr 2020MindTrap with Mufti Abu Layth Is questioning Aisha's age just an attempt to please non-Muslims? The guest says he once made the same accusation, but came to see that a girl of nine is not fit for marriage and that Muslims themselves do not marry girls at that age. A report being in Bukhari does not make it the final word, since scholars have always differed with Bukhari where something more authentic exists.

18 Sep 2019From the Mind of a Mufti Is listening to music haram? In Mufti Abu Layth's understanding music is not forbidden, because no text is at once conclusive, sahih and explicit: the Bukhari hadith speaks of entertainment, not music, and the texts naming music are not authentic. People find this hard to accept because they come to religion expecting it to oppose entertainment and desire.

8 Jul 2018Responding to Refutations Thanks for the correction, but the chain is still flawed Mufti Abu Layth accepts that three forum quotes were misrepresented but says he never relied on them: his case rests on the narrator's tadlis, which his critics have not refuted.

9 Feb 2018On the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ Is the hadith of the crying tree trunk authentic? No: Mufti Abu Layth finds weak narrators in each chain, including those in al-Bukhari, and says only the Quran is preserved in its entirety.
