What this part covers

machinesummary, machine-written

Mufti Abu Layth shows the allegations circulating on Twitter against a well-known Quran reciter, says he cannot tell whether they are true, and says criminal claims should go to the police.

In more detail

Mufti Abu Layth opens his masala segment, previewing a viral clip of a preacher and a scandal that has blown up on Twitter concerning a well-known young Quran reciter, named on air by his first name [?]. He shows posts warning people to protect Muslim sisters from him, which go back as far as eight years and include very serious allegations, among them abuse and rape, and jokes in passing about the name and Sultan al-Fatih. He says he does not know whether these things are true, and that if they are criminal as stated there should be a police investigation. He reads a post alleging that the reciter fled the US, and a woman's account of meeting him in high school that turned rough, and says that as a bystander it is very difficult to tell who is telling the truth.
