19 Jun 2020MindTrap with Mufti Abu Layth Was Ibn Mas'ud's Quran different from the Quran we have? No: the guest says the reports that Ibn Mas'ud rejected al-Fatiha or the last two surahs are wrongly ascribed to him, and the major companions vouched for the same Quran, the only traceable dispute being over the word 'qul'. Mufti Abu Layth also says he would not advocate cutting the hand today, since for him the hudud have already changed with the age.

1 Mar 2019Ponderings on the Holy Quran Did the companions ever read or understand the Quran differently from each other? Muslims already accept that the Quran was revealed with fluidity: the Prophet approved different recitations, and the tradition openly records companions such as Ibn Mas'ud holding mistaken views about what was part of the Quran and pronouncing letters by their tribal dialect. None of this is a shock to Muslims.

13 Feb 2018Debunking Myths On: Jinns, Magic, the Evil Eye, and Superstitions Did someone really do magic on the Prophet? No: he calls the report of magic on the Prophet falsely attributed and an affront to his honour, and says the Quls were revealed years earlier in Makkah.

20 Sep 2017Debunking Myths On: Jinns, Magic, the Evil Eye, and Superstitions Which classical scholars denied that jinn can possess people? Ibn Hazm held that claiming possession is a claim without knowledge and haram, since the Prophet spoke only of whispering; al-Tahawi noted that every taught du'a is against whispering, al-Razi said Shaytan cannot cause illness, and al-Shafi'i rejected the testimony of anyone claiming to see jinn, which only prophets can.
