What this part covers
machinesummary, machine-writtenMufti Abu Layth says Qadhi, trying to reassert his traditional credentials on a podcast, said people like Mufti should declare themselves Mu'tazila rather than Sunni.
In more detail
Mufti Abu Layth says that Qadhi then appeared on a podcast, the Mad Mamluks [?], in which he says Qadhi was trying to reassert that he is still very traditional. He asks sarcastically how one reasserts one's position, answering that the usual Salafi or Wahhabi way is to declare others heretics and so assume a position of orthodoxy. He reports that, about an hour and thirteen minutes in, the podcast host said that people like Mufti Abu Layth deny certain miracles and the virginity of Maryam, which Mufti says was phrased to sound scandalous. He reports Qadhi's answer, which does not use Mufti's name: that one must look to the Quran and Sunnah, and that such people should simply declare that they are not Sunni and not from orthodox Islam but Mu'tazila, an old deviant sect, and then there would be no issue.
