14 Mar 2021video Who are the problematic narrators in the Sahih Muslim reports on Jesus's return? The Sahih Muslim chains include a narrator who suffered memory loss, a narrator who cannot be identified and could not have met Abu Hurayra, a major mudallis whose reports some critics discarded as fabrications, and Abu al-Zubayr, whom Abu Hatim did not consider reliable.

2 Mar 2021Monday Nights with Mufti Abu Layth Are the Sahih Muslim reports about Jesus's return reliable? Further Sahih Muslim chains contain a narrator with memory loss, an unidentifiable narrator who could not have met Abu Hurayra, Ibn Jurayj, whom he calls a major mudallis, and Abu al-Zubayr.

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.

8 Jul 2018Responding to Refutations Was al-A'mash a reliable hadith narrator? Mufti Abu Layth cites classical critics who say al-A'mash committed tadlis, sometimes hiding weak narrators, and made many mistakes. This does not mean every narration of his in Bukhari and Muslim is weak. Discussional-A'mashAbu HurayraAbu Salih [?]Sahih Muslim machine9 min 28 s4:25on YouTube
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.

21 Feb 2018Responding to Refutations Are the Jabir chains for the crying-tree hadith through Isra'il, Abd al-Razzaq and Ibn Jurayj sound? Mufti Abu Layth argues they are not: one chain rests on Isra'il, whom Yahya ibn Sa'id and Ibn al-Madini weakened, and an unknown narrator; the other on Abd al-Razzaq, criticised for errors from memory, and Ibn Jurayj, a mudallis whose 'akhbarani' referred to books rather than hearing.

9 Feb 2018On the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ Is every hadith in Sahih al-Bukhari authentic? Not necessarily: Mufti Abu Layth says al-Bukhari did an excellent job, a hundred unreliable reports among eight thousand would be no big deal, and great scholars disagreed in their rulings.
