**Summary (not a quotation; machine-made, unchecked):** Housekeeping: super chats are read out, with the questions on prophethood and on the story of Lut kept for later.

## Longer summary

Mufti Abu Layth says he did buy some bitcoin, as he said the previous week. He mocks a super chat asking whether visiting escorts is allowed, sent under a pious-sounding name, and does not answer it. He reads two questions he will come back to: whether, if the Prophet saw prophethood in his son Ibrahim, future prophets should be possible and why God would stop revelation, and whether the Quran clearly prohibits homosexual acts or the story of Lut can be read otherwise. He jokes about the mix of questions and remembers he has not yet read a poem.

## Sources and names cited

- Ibrahim, the son of the Prophet
- Lut
