19 Apr 2021video Why do Mufti Abu Layth's critics defend Bukhari reports that demean the Prophet? Critics who defend Bukhari reports Mufti Abu Layth regards as insulting to the Prophet, such as marrying a child, forcing Safiyya, forgetting the Quran or being made impotent by magic, cannot claim to love the Prophet. Mariya al-Qibtiyya was a wife, not a concubine, and the critics' real concern is a fantasy caliphate and power.

22 Apr 2020MindTrap with Mufti Abu Layth Why did earlier scholars not see what reform-minded scholars see today? Past scholars were great but fallible and bound by their time, like people in a smoke-filled room or marchers in a procession, while today we can see the whole history of ideas from the balcony. Mufti Abu Layth adds that the apostasy rule rests on one problematic narration from Ikrima in Bukhari.

25 Jul 2019Ponderings on the Holy Quran Who transmitted the hadith 'whoever changes his religion, kill him', and does the Quran punish apostasy? Mufti Abu Layth says the Quran is ambivalent about those who leave Islam and that the call to kill apostates is nonsense; the report 'whoever changes his religion, kill him' in Bukhari rests solely on Ikrima, a Khariji whom Imam Malik and Ibn Umar distrusted. He introduces Abdullah Sameer's post as the subject he will answer. Lessonposition checkedAbdullah SameerKhawarijISISIkrima machine5 min 07 s1:18on YouTube
30 Aug 2018BukhariGate: Issues with Sahih al-Bukhari The first problem: Bukhari's semi-divine status above the Quran in practice Sahih al-Bukhari has been given a semi-divine status that in practice places it on par with or above the Quran, which he rejects outright. The Quran always takes precedence, and Bukhari is a book like the other hadith collections.

10 May 2018Ponderings on the Holy Quran What is the context of the hadith 'whoever changes his religion, kill him'? The report 'whoever changes his religion, kill him' clashes with the Quran, and in full it is Ikrima's account of Ali burning people alive and Ibn Abbas objecting that he should have executed them instead.

10 May 2018Ponderings on the Holy Quran Is Ikrima, the narrator of the apostasy hadith, reliable? The main chains of 'whoever changes his religion, kill him' run through Ikrima, whom he describes as a Khariji, and whom Imam Malik and many early authorities rejected or called a liar.
