**Topics:** Responses to critics; Reports that disrespect the Prophet; Replies to attacks on the Prophet

**Summary (not a quotation; machine-made, unchecked):** Mufti Abu Layth says the group's own words, asking what is wrong with the Prophet being sexually impotent and defending the report of Musa running naked, are blasphemous. That, he says, is why he described them as he did.

## Longer summary

Mufti Abu Layth says some viewers asked him to respond to Sunni Defence, which he also calls Wahhabi Defence, before returning to the session's questions, and notes that one of its key figures, Farid [?], whom he refers to by a mocking nickname, is back. He says viewers had objected that the group never said anything disrespectful about the Prophet, and sets out to justify his description. He reads their first refutation of him, which asked what was wrong with the Prophet getting sick and becoming sexually impotent and whether sexual potency is a criterion of prophethood, and calls this a ridiculous and blasphemous attitude. He adds that the same critic defends the Bukhari report that the Prophet Musa ran naked so that people could see his testicles, and accuses Mufti of criticising such reports while they themselves hold that black magic incapacitated the Prophet.
