9 May 2021video Did scholars let slave women uncover more than free women? Mufti Abu Layth says the scholars dropped their concern for modesty when it came to slave women, and calls the claim that nobody would desire them nonsense. He thinks slave women probably wore working clothes, with arms and lower legs uncovered, rather than walking about topless.

4 May 2018Clarifying False Hadith Which Insult Islam Should I refuse to shake hands with the opposite sex where it is the custom? Follow the convention you are in: where people do not shake hands, do not; where they do, you may act on the fatwa of the scholars who permit it, since no clear verse or hadith forbids it. Losing citizenship over a handshake was not a battle worth choosing.

15 Apr 2018Debunking Myths On: Jinns, Magic, the Evil Eye, and Superstitions Is jinn possession just a difference of opinion among scholars? Mufti Abu Layth refuses to treat it that way: although scholars from Fakhr al-Din al-Razi to Shaltut, Ibn Ashur and al-Shawkani rejected possession while Ibn Taymiyya affirmed it, this is not a harmless fiqh difference like raising the hands in prayer, because the belief drives abuse and exploitation and brings ridicule on Islam.

2 Jan 2018Responding to Refutations Anal intercourse: the difference of opinion and the chains of the critic's hadith On anal intercourse Mufti Abu Layth says only that there is a difference of opinion: the majority held it haram, many Malikis did not and disliked it for hygiene. He argues that every hadith the critic quoted against it has a weak or disconnected chain.

29 Sep 2017From the Mind of a Mufti Who has the right to tell other Muslims off for doing something haram? Hisbah, commanding good and forbidding evil, is for legitimate authority and for qualified scholars, and only in matters that are clearly agreed upon. Imam Malik said one may advise but not argue or dispute.

2 Jul 2014video Is difference of opinion in Islam a mercy? Yes, definitely: difference of opinion is a mercy and a message of tolerance. He also calls social media vital for da'wah. Question source not recordedposition checkedikhtilaf (difference of opinion) machine36 s18:32on YouTube
12 Apr 2014video Can I trim my beard short or to a goatee, below a fist's length? Trimming the beard from the sides, to a goatee or to less than a fist's length is permissible and not haram, though a difference of opinion exists and others may follow it. Mufti Abu Layth's aim is to show that this opinion has a long and continuing place in the tradition.
