12 Jan 2021video Why was Ibn Taymiyya put in prison? Ibn Taymiyya made powerful enemies by declaring Muslims kafir, and Maliki judges finally jailed him over his fatwa, voiced by his student in Jerusalem, that one may not travel to visit the Prophet's grave. Mufti Abu Layth calls the view foolish but says no one should be punished for an opinion.

15 Nov 2020video Is the evil eye based on science? It rested on the old belief that eyes shoot out rays, which people once took as science; Ibn al-Qayyim described envious 'arrows' from the eye. Ibn al-Haytham and later science showed that eyes only take in light.

4 Aug 2019From the Mind of a Mufti Is capital punishment, including for apostasy, justified? Mufti Abu Layth opposes capital punishment as absurd, killing to stop killing, and calls justifying death for apostasy as treason a stupid argument. He welcomes Mohammed Hijab's apparent move away from the classical ruling to kill apostates. Discussionposition checkedMohammed Hijabriddah (apostasy)SalafiWahhabi machine7 min 25 s29:52on YouTube
25 Jul 2019Ponderings on the Holy Quran Did classical scholars really say Quran 65:4 includes little girls? Yes, some did: Mufti Abu Layth concedes that commentators such as Ibn Kathir and al-Qurtubi wrote that the phrase can include little girls, which he condemns as a mistake. He says their saying so is not the Quran saying so, and the evidence lies in how the passage opens.

20 Dec 2018From the Mind of a Mufti Does Islam say homosexuals should be thrown off buildings or executed? There is no sahih hadith in which the Prophet spoke about homosexuals, the reports of Ali ordering executions are not authentic in Mufti Abu Layth's view, and the early jurists disagreed, with the Hanafis holding it is not a hadd offence. The claim of a consensus that homosexual acts deserve death is false.

6 Sep 2017From the Mind of a Mufti Is it wrong to choose the easier opinion in Islam? Mufti Abu Layth says choosing what is easier is the nature of Islam, citing hadith that the Prophet always chose the easier of two options. Islam came to connect people with God, not to make secondary details the main issue.
