2 Mar 2021Monday Nights with Mufti Abu Layth Can the revelation of the Quran be explained without the supernatural? The words of revelation manifested in the Prophet's mind rather than being composed by him; whether that counts as supernatural depends on the definition, and trance experiences are only an approximation.

12 Jan 2021Monday Nights with Mufti Abu Layth Why would God stop sending revelation? Revelation as a religion has ended, he says, but the Prophet said it continues in dreams, which can guide a person but are not for preaching.

3 Jul 2020MindTrap with Mufti Abu Layth What difference does it make that the Quran was first oral and only later written down?

3 Jul 2020MindTrap with Mufti Abu Layth Was revelation words dictated by Gabriel, or inspiration the Prophet put into words? The guest argues that Quranic wahy is non-verbal inspiration through the ruh which the Prophet put into Arabic; Mufti Abu Layth says he finds himself with those who hold revelation was expressed within the Prophet.

14 Sep 2019video How do I answer Christians who say the Quran could be corrupted like the Bible? Earlier revelation was not like the Quran: the Quran is a recitation meant to be preserved word for word, while the Torah was a message and laws and the Injil was the good news Jesus preached.
