24 Aug 2020Monday Nights with Mufti Abu Layth Is the hadith that Aisha was married at six authentic?

19 Sep 2019Responding to Refutations Are the hadith about Aisha's young age authentic? Mufti Abu Layth says every chain for Aisha's young age is flawed, resting on narrators accused of tadlis and all going back to Urwa. Those who defend them put al-Bukhari's sanctity above the Prophet's honour. Discussionposition checkedAishaWahhabiDeobandiSahih al-Bukhari machine6 min 10 s6:57on YouTube
30 Nov 2018Mothers of the Believers: The Wives of the Blessed Prophet ﷺ Was Aisha really nine, as Yaqeen Institute concluded? Mufti Abu Layth rejects the conclusion that Aisha was six at marriage and nine at its consummation, saying such a marriage would be morally abhorrent and did not happen. He disputes the claim that the question is not a moral one and says the chains of the report are unreliable.

11 Jan 2017Mothers of the Believers: The Wives of the Blessed Prophet ﷺ The reports: Bukhari's six and nine against three other Bukhari reports The six-and-nine report conflicts with three other Bukhari reports: Aisha as a jariyah at an early revelation, her memory of her parents' Islam and Abu Bakr's migration, and her presence at Uhud when a fourteen-year-old boy was refused.

11 Jan 2017Mothers of the Believers: The Wives of the Blessed Prophet ﷺ The reports: Hisham's Iraqi transmission, Madinan silence and Asma's age The six-and-nine report rests on Hisham ibn Urwa's later Iraqi transmission and no Madinan compiler carries it. Asma's reported age makes Aisha about eighteen at her marriage. Lessonposition checkedHisham ibn UrwaImam MalikIbn Shihab al-ZuhriIbn Hajar [?] machine5 min 12 s57:37on YouTube
