10 Dec 2022video LatestWhy did Abu Hanifa allow things like praying in Persian? Abu Hanifa's legal stratagems, such as letting someone who knew no Arabic pray in Persian, were meant to create ease for new Muslims, not to change Islam, and Mufti Abu Layth says that spirit is needed today.

10 Dec 2022video How did the Hanafi school develop from Abu Hanifa's teaching? Abu Hanifa's students, above all Imam Muhammad, turned his spirit into an institution through the six books of the zahir al-riwaya, and Mufti Abu Layth feels the madhhab later lost that spirit and became focused on the letter of the law.

29 Jan 2021MindTrap with Mufti Abu Layth Was there a power struggle in the early Hanafi school? Mufti Abu Layth feels the early Hanafi school saw power struggles and that Abu Yusuf lacked Abu Hanifa's reason; the guest calls Ahmad ibn Hanbal the greatest muhaddith but not a jurist of the first rank.

29 Jan 2021MindTrap with Mufti Abu Layth Did the early Hanafis hold that apostates should be killed?
