    <summary type="text">What does Mufti Abu Layth think the solution for Kashmir is?
Independence for at least part of Kashmir, such as the valley, from both India and Pakistan, with buffers so Pakistan is not exposed, though he does not expect it to happen. Kashmir differs from Gaza in being a militarised zone rather than a bombarded prison, and India would not pay to relocate anyone. Mufti Abu Layth says that Kashmir, unlike Gaza, is a heavily militarised zone, that India would not pay to relocate its people, and that the ideal solution would be independence for part of Kashmir, such as the valley, with buffers kept so that Pakistan is not left vulnerable, though he expects none of it to happen.

Mufti Abu Layth supports the Islamabad temple: Pakistan is a nation-state of equal citizens, and Muslims who demand tolerance abroad but deny it at home are bigots.
