22 Apr 2020MindTrap with Mufti Abu Layth Can a hadith in Sahih al-Bukhari be questioned? Sahih means Bukhari and Muslim verified the chains, which says little about the content, since reliable narrators still err and insert explanations; only the few mutawatir reports, mostly practices like the number of units in prayer, are beyond doubt. Mufti Abu Layth says he believes all the hadith on Aisha's age are weak.

30 Aug 2018BukhariGate: Issues with Sahih al-Bukhari Imam Bukhari's own practice: transmission by meaning, hidden names, a Khariji narrator Imam Bukhari set a gold standard but did not always apply it: he transmitted by meaning, hid the names of problematic teachers and narrated from a Khariji who praised Ali's killer. Mufti Abu Layth's quarrel is not with Bukhari himself but with how the book is treated.

30 Aug 2018BukhariGate: Issues with Sahih al-Bukhari Bukhari's persecution and why his book reaches us through one transmitter Bukhari was persecuted and boycotted in his last years by Hanafis and Hanbali literalists, so few transmitted his book and it reaches us through Farabri alone. The same two groups now insist it reaches us with certainty. Lessonposition checkedImam al-BukhariAbu HanifaImam MuslimMuhammad ibn Yusuf al-Farabri machine3 min 57 s58:29on 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.

21 Dec 2016video Where will the answers to Muslims' problems today come from? From Muslims themselves: as Abdullah ibn al-Mubarak said, legends will be born to carry the deen, and Allah sends revivers in every generation.
