What this part covers
machinesummary, machine-writtenMufti Abu Layth holds that Jesus's return is a Christian belief that entered Islam and contradicts the Quran and its principles. Creed cannot be blind-followed, so he will not be intimidated into it.
In more detail
Mufti Abu Layth says that in his belief the return of Jesus is not an Islamic teaching: it entered through Christian converts, was later Islamicised, and through power struggles and sectarianism was made part of creed. He holds that it contradicts the main teachings of the Quran, the principles of Islam and the generic hadith of the Prophet, and in parts the whole life and message of the Prophet. Turning to what counts as belief, he says the theologians, especially the Ash'aris and Maturidis who make up the bulk of the Ummah, held that creed cannot be blind-followed and that doing so is haram, some even claiming consensus on this; he cites the hadith in which a person questioned in the grave says he heard people saying something and so said it, and is told he neither knew nor followed. He asks why, if Islam forbids intimidating people into belief, he is expected to blind-follow this issue, and calls the reply that only belief in Allah is exempt absurd.
Position stated
Mufti Abu Layth holds that the belief in Jesus's return is not Islamic because it contradicts the main teachings of the Quran, the principles of Islam and the Prophet's life and message.
“that is my my belief on this matter that this is not an Islamic thing why because it contradicts against I believe the main teachings of the Quran and it contradicts the main principles of Islam”

especially as the Muslims expanded into the Roman Empire and many Christian converts came into Islam so my understanding is that this belief crept in through them and and then later on II got is Lama sized and so and then people later on it turned into other issues there were power elements involved sectarianism and people made it parts are part of creed and stuff like this so that is my my belief on this matter that this is not an Islamic thing why because it contradicts against I believe the main teachings of the Quran
and it contradicts the main principles of Islam and the generic hadith of the Prophet and in fact even parts of it contradict the whole life and the message of the prophet salallahu alaihe salam so this is my my kind of angle on this now you need to understand something people when we say belief is this a part of Muslim belief right now appiah is something that the theologians the theologian Arcada means Creed what people believe the theologians have highlighted that are key especially the ash Oddie's and the motto read easily
make up the bulk of this ummah they have highlighted that Creed is something that a person cannot blind following it is haram they said to blind follow some money went to the extent to say there was an agreement each map if they wanted my on this but the point is that you must yourself independently ponder over things and arrive at the faith why because the hadith teaches in the arcade of people will say when the Angels ask them that a person will say that Oh Samaritan ass yeah olynyk Ottawa Qatar I heard people saying this all to hood so I said it as well and the angels
will say lad later that you know you did not know well at a later and you did not follow and you have today being destroyed because of this so blind following faith is unacceptable you can't really I mean people do it the common people just right the common people do kind of believe the common people do believe by blind following but the olam are say that's not actually how
islam ought to be you ought to kind of really ponder yourself and write so if that's the case why do you want me to blind following this issue why do you want to intimidate people into embracing this issue because if Islam says you can't intimidate other people into believing things then why and if you say no but that's only for Allah but we can intimidate for the rest of faith that's absurd it doesn't make any sense so just to kind of clarify that's an important point we also need to understand this belief guys about the second coming of
