19 Jun 2020MindTrap with Mufti Abu Layth Does a reciter's chain of teachers back to the Prophet prove the Quran's text?

28 Sep 2019Ponderings on the Holy Quran Why the Quran could not be corrupted like hadith, and the fashion for chains Corrupting the Quran was next to impossible because it was recited en masse everywhere; hadith, written down a century later, were easy to fabricate, and chains for the Quran came later as a fashion.

No: he follows the school of Madinah and Imam Malik, teaches thousand-year-old texts and holds chains back to the Prophet, and calls boycotting classical thought a heresy.
