Oxford Union Website @ www.oxford-union.org/
Matthew Handley started the debate by grounding it in recent events, deploring the previous day's "reprehensible act in Woolwich", a sentiment that he was sure would be shared by Muslims around the world.
Handley continues by separating the religion of Islam from the individuals who "violently hijack faith for violent and maniacal ends" and maintains that the Qur'an has an "overwhelmingly peaceful character."
In the light of the "decade long surge of violence and aggression" against Islam since 9/11, he summarises the debate as a choice between "love and hate and rejection, peace and conflict" and concludes: "I hope you make the right choice."
MOTION: THIS HOUSE BELIEVES ISLAM IS A RELIGION OF PEACE.

Quran 8:61 And if they incline to peace, then incline to it [also] and rely upon Allah . Indeed, it is He who is the Hearing, the Knowing. Quran 9:6 And if any one of the polytheists seeks your protection, then grant him protection so that he may hear the words of Allah . Then deliver him to his place of safety. That is because they are a people who do not know. Quran 21:107 And We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], except as a mercy to the worlds. Quran 17:33 And do not kill the soul which Allah has forbidden, except by right. And whoever is killed unjustly - We have given his heir authority, but let him not exceed limits in [the matter of] taking life. Indeed, he has been supported [by the law]. Quran 17:7 [And said], "If you do good, you do good for yourselves; and if you do evil, [you do it] to yourselves." Then when the final promise came, [We sent your enemies] to sadden your faces and to enter the temple in Jerusalem, as they entered it the first time, and to destroy what they had taken over with [total] destruction. Sources: quran.com/8/61 quran.com/9/6 quran.com/21/107 quran.com/17/33 quran.com/17/7 Quran 2:256 There shall be no compulsion in [acceptance of] the religion. The right course has become clear from the wrong. So whoever disbelieves in Taghut and believes in Allah has grasped the most trustworthy handhold with no break in it. And Allah is Hearing and Knowing. Source: quran.com/2/256

That's right brother. You are blaming 1.6Billion Muslims for 20-30,000 terrorists. That's how you think. Look every religion has some terrorists and extremists but it doesn't represents the religion. What represents the religion is the good peoples of the religion who are the majority of that religion. But when it comes to the way of Islam you are blaming 1.6Billon of Good peoples for those 20-30,000 idiots.

@@etrepreneur7199 Bro in Chapter 9 i will give you three verses back to back read it carefully. [9:5] But when the sacred months expire slay those who associate others with Allah in His Divinity wherever you find them; seize them, and besiege them, and lie in wait for them. But if they repent and establish the Prayer and pay Zakah, leave them alone. Surely Allah is All-Forgiving, Ever-Merciful. [9:6] And if any of those who associate others with Allah in His Divinity seeks asylum, grant him asylum that he may hear the Word of Allah, and then escort him to safety for they are a people who do not know. [9:7] How can there be a covenant with those who associate others with Allah in His Divinity be binding upon Allah and His Messenger, excepting those with whom you made a covenant near the Sacred Mosque?9 Behave in a straight manner with them so long as they behave with you in a straight manner for Allah loves the Godfearing.

Secondly, what defines a Muslim in your mind. Can a Sunni tell a Shiite what Islam is, or vice versa? Can a Pakistani Muslim tell other Muslims what Islam is, despite being fourth or fifth generation converts, probably from Hinduism. Can an ex-Muslim, former Iman tell Muslims what Islam is, or does his no longer practising of Islam make his studied, education take on things less valid now? While you may have been 'born' a Muslim, that does not mean that you are automatically more knowledgeable about your religion. It is, after all, a product of human history, which means that all humans have a right to study, comment and opine on, regardless of their faith or lack their of.

For some reason, we are told to judge "religion" differently than any other ideology- rather than looking at it critically and objectively, we must _start_ with the assumption that a religion is peaceful and it's followers are inherently good. Even when a larger proportion of its followers support violent acts directly inspired by their religion, we are not allowed to pass any judgement of the religion. That is absurd.

To be fair... A religion is more than an ideology. I agree with you in principle. All bad ideas must be freely and fiercely challenged and rejected - whether they are from a religion or not. However, it is true that religions are internally diverse, speak to emotions more than the intellect very often and also include behaviors, rituals and community - not just beliefs. That's what makes this topic challenging. It's also what makes bad religions so difficult to eliminate from culture. For the record, I find most religions are unhelpful. Islam is at the top of my list for "awful religions".

Maybe they cant say everything about Islam is religion of peace. But not in my eyes, not in my experience. You can dive into Cristianity and indentify a bad christian. But, good muslim can do many bad things. They can kill, they can judge, they can punish. I just don't get it why these smart people still stay in islame.

I'm not gonna say I'm smart and I lived in Iran for 11 years and I didn't really like Islam then, but after a few years of being in western europe, I really see that Islam has some good points and I've began to respect it. Firstly, Islam has yet to contradict itself, in terms of both the scripture and the social norms. For example, the Pope announced that LGBTQ people are okay to be christian; I have nothing against anyone choosing their own path, but when it clearly states you can't be with the same gender and you are gay then you can't be christian. Most real muslims stay true to their beliefs. Secondly, most islamic modernists are the terrorists you hear about all the time. Osama bin laden rejected the authentic teachings and stated that nothing is set into stone. I kinda went off topic but overall, Islam imo is the best religion, but I remain agnostic, and I believe like many other aspects of life, one must take the good and leave the bad.

Islam is not a violent religion but a peaceful religion which promotes peace and calls for humanity to live in harmony with one another whilst dedicating their lives to the one Allah. The Noble Quran is for the whole of humanity and calls upon the human race to glorify their one lord who created them and sustains them. Is this not peaceful?

​@@steva186 First of all, as a christian, I lived in 12 different muslim countries and they are all completely different than one another. They are mostly different based on different cultures and governments. They all have something in common though, that one thing is peace and respect. I was very respected as a white christian and never felt unsafe. Don't paint a whole religion with 1.8 billion people to one/two governments in one brush, governments does not represent the majority of the people. You want the world to be a better place? first start off with yourself, educate yourself, love yourself then loving others will happen naturally. Travel, explore, you only have 1 life, if you want to live a hatred life in 1 place, that's your choice, sucks for you sorry.

Unfortunately the warfare and conquest perpetrated by the prophet Muhammad shows that the founder of Islam was not a man of peace. Islam has always forced it's beliefs on others by conquest. Thankfully, most Muslims live in peace. However, this does not mean that Islam at it's roots is a religion of peace.

This guy contradicts himself so much! First he argues that not all Muslim's are extremists (completely agree), but then he goes on to claim that if you oppose Islam you're as bad as the people who tweeted 'kill all the Muslims' after the Lee Rigby murder........... errrr hello!!!!??? nope, in the same as your original argument, not all of the people who oppose Islam (myself) and were disgusted by the brutal slaughter of the innocent Mr Rigby wanted to go out and 'kill all the Muslims', it was an idiotic, uninformed and extremist minority. On the other hand, I don't think the extremists of Islam are the minority, Islam itself is extremist in its teachings.

For the record I am not religious what so ever, I am 23 years of age and in my relatively short life time thus far have only seen horrendously cruel acts carried out on humankind by the religions of the world, far outweighing any good that's come from religion. If anybody has at least one brain cell, they should be able to recognize that the most religious places on Earth are in complete turmoil. A perfect example of what religion does to a society if allowed complete freedom.

The point is that there have been heinous murders in the name of Christianity, Judaism, even one of the most peaceful religions you can imagine - Buddhism, but let's not forget that they have also been committed in the name of atheistic Communism (with communal values aiming to see all humans as equal), in the name of economic prosperity programs, in the name of liberal democracy, in the name of almost any damn worldview or framework of understanding mate. This is to say that it's no different from any other religion or worldview and that murder in the name of Islam does not make Islam special as a violent religion. Where's your critical thinking run off to?

Use your imagination) - 1st Samuel chapter 3 verse 15 Also it is common knowledge that Christianity was spread by the sword. dont write a long paragraph and forget to mention whats been happening in Africa, since the Christian Portuguese set out their conquests. My point is everywhere there are people, some of them commit atrocities but the difference is that the bible has it in writing as law. If you have the balls or intellect show me in the Quran where it talks violence outside of self defense.

I still occupy an opposing stance to his. Everyone every morning has the choice between peace and violence, same as putting a needle in your arm, to choose a drastic example. But without a book condoning this given violence - a cycle unbroken until today - waking up to choosing a non violent day is much easier.
