14 Mar 2021video LatestWho does Yasir Qadhi say first denied the return of Jesus, and what is the Ahmadiyya connection? Qadhi's clip claims ijma on the return, names Muhammad Abduh as the first to deny it and links deniers to the Ahmadiyya. Mufti Abu Layth calls the association ironic, since that movement is itself messianic, and says Qadhi's own evolution theory comes from Abduh.

27 Oct 2020Monday Nights with Mufti Abu Layth Is the second coming of Jesus the right answer to the Qadianis?

31 Mar 2020video Does Abul Kalam Azad praising Mirza Ghulam Ahmad prove anything? Abul Kalam Azad may well have spoken kindly of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, as people who knew and liked a decent man would. Mufti Abu Layth finds it illogical that the critics accept a prophet who achieved nothing yet call his view that tattoos are not haram absurd.

31 Mar 2020video What was the purpose of God sending Mirza Ghulam Ahmad as a prophet? A prophet is sent with a purpose, as with Jesus, Moses, David and Muhammad, but Mufti Abu Layth sees none in Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, who lived and died under British rule without liberating even Qadian. The caller could not name a message and asked to call a friend. Lessonposition checkedMirza Ghulam Ahmad of QadianJesus (Isa)Moses (Musa)David (Dawud) machine6 min 38 s11:55on YouTube
31 Mar 2020video What was Mirza Ghulam Ahmad's prophecy about Muhammadi Begum and did it come true? Mirza Ghulam Ahmad's claimed revelation that Muhammadi Begum's husband would die if she married another was not fulfilled, since the husband lived on and the couple had children.

15 Jan 2019Responding to Refutations Backdrop: trolling by Ahmadis and the video that prompted the reply The reply was prompted by an Ahmadi video claiming Mufti Abu Layth borrowed his views from them, followed by days of online trolling.

15 Jan 2019Responding to Refutations Who Mirza Ghulam Ahmad was and the claim that God spoke to him in Punjabi Mirza Ghulam Ahmad was born in 1839 in Punjab. Mufti Abu Layth argues that God intervening in an age of colonial suffering by merely talking to one man in Punjabi, with nothing changing, is not a credible divine plan.

15 Jan 2019Responding to Refutations Mirza Ghulam Ahmad's developing claims: reformer, messiah, prophet, Krishna The claim that Mirza never claimed prophethood is a half-truth: he began as a reformer in 1884, then claimed to be the promised messiah, a prophet in 1901 and Krishna in 1904. Mufti Abu Layth quotes these claims from Mirza's own books.

15 Jan 2019Responding to Refutations Early denials, the second coming, revelations in English and claims of divinity Mirza's early denials of prophethood were superseded by later claims to be Christ, to receive Quranic verses, to own the real al-Aqsa and to be God. Mufti Abu Layth believes Mirza was mentally unwell rather than lying.

15 Jan 2019Responding to Refutations Final thoughts: mental health, persecution, free speech and the victim card Mufti Abu Layth condemns any persecution of Ahmadis but says criticising their beliefs is free speech, not persecution, and that not calling them Muslims does not amount to persecuting them.
