The answer in brief

machinesummary, machine-written

Mufti Abu Layth says his critics, not he, made this a big deal; he has taught it for a year and stands by his position. He is addressing only one of two broad camps of religious people.

In more detail

Mufti Abu Layth frames the session as a prelude and backdrop to a fully detailed video response he will make after Shaykh Asrar [?] releases his, in a week or two. Addressing the question of why he is making this a big deal, he says he is not: he has been answering it for almost a year on his Monday night streams, and it became an international debate only when people jumped on the bandwagon of refuting him. He welcomes the debate, saying his case is reason against a dogmatic stance, and that now that it has become a big deal he stands by his position. He then asks who he is addressing and introduces the idea that religion can be understood in two broad camps of people.

Question as read aloud · questioner not identified

Why am I making this a big deal? And who am I addressing when I say Jesus Christ is not coming back in Islam?
