26 Apr 2021MindTrap with Mufti Abu Layth LatestDid everyone at the time of the Prophet accept Islam without questions? The guest says early Muslims, including poets, had real critiques; Mufti Abu Layth says the deen should complement life rather than complicate it.

6 Apr 2020video Why is demanding that a scholar make takfir a form of bullying? It is bullying because it pushes a sectarian agenda by threatening to declare al-Yaqoubi a deviant or a kafir for refusing to pronounce on others' beliefs. The deen belongs to Allah, and it is nobody's duty to expel people from it. Question from live chatShaykh Muhammad al-YaqoubitakfirdeenSunni machine1 min 25 s15:27on YouTube

3 Nov 2019Responding to Refutations Can old interpretations of the Quran be revisited, and what role does reason play? Mufti Abu Layth says long-standing interpretations that are not the Quran's clear expression may be revisited and that reason has primacy, but one must not condemn others for doing what one does oneself.

21 Aug 2019From the Mind of a Mufti Did the Prophet teach a formal creed of what Muslims must believe? The Prophet taught faith, not a creed: beyond a handful of beliefs no hadith prescribes what to believe, and for 150 years the salaf up to Imam Malik wrote down no dogma. Policing people's ideas is the antithesis of Islam, so think for yourself. Lessonposition checkedImam Malikaqidahsalafdeen machine2 min 36 s15:41on YouTube

20 Dec 2018From the Mind of a Mufti Is homosexuality haram in Islam, and why were the people of Lut destroyed? Mufti Abu Layth accepts the majority view that homosexual acts are haram, but says the punishments scholars assigned were variable public-order measures that changed over time, that the people of Lut were destroyed primarily for rejecting their prophet, and that the ruling does not require hatred of homosexual people.

1 Apr 2018Islamic Eschatology If I doubt one hadith in Bukhari, will I end up doubting the Quran? The warning that doubting one hadith leads to doubting the Quran is scare-mongering: Bukhari and Muslim are not the word of God, some of their reports must be rejected, and the deen does not fall apart from questioning. Mufti Abu Layth says Jesus is not going to come but treats the matter as a difference of opinion, not a sectarian one.

15 Mar 2016video Ritualisation of the deen and the angels' question about Adam: can believers ask? The deen has been ritualised so that scholarly conclusions cannot be questioned, while the angels' question to Allah about creating Adam is read as a model that believers may ask questions.

12 Mar 2014video Do I have to follow a madhhab? Yes in practice: a sound understanding of the deen cannot be acquired without a school of law as the medium, just as knowledge cannot be acquired without a language. It is not a matter of sin or haram, but of what is conceivable. Lessonposition checkedmadhhabdeenharamwajib machine5 min 09 s0:04on YouTube
