What this part covers
machinesummary, machine-writtenLight chat: he is unsure how he feels about Trump's Twitter ban and says reciting Ya Sin each morning is not a sunnah.
In more detail
Mufti Abu Layth jokes that his show has become a place for people to make general statements. He says the banning of Trump from Twitter is interesting: he supposes it was done because Trump could cause a revolution, but says he does not know how he feels about it given freedom of speech. Turning to Facebook questions, he says he has not switched from WhatsApp to Signal, and answers briefly that reciting Surah Ya Sin in the morning for blessings is not a sunnah. He jokes about confessions and a question on eating meat at Jewish dinner parties.
