Does Islam Clash With British Values? 

No need for childish comments from the host. As a Muslim, I'm cringing at such silly comments. Invite to the way of your Lord with wisdom and good instruction, and argue with them in a way that is best. Al-Quran, Surah Nahl

The Chair is rude.

Rev. has some major double standards there.

You just want to change British society because according to Islam, British values are not worthy of Islamic consideration, and cannot be apart of what it means to be a true Muslim. You're not saying it outright but there is that conflict between what are British values and the Islamic ideology. Despite the fact you have a British passport you still don't want to identify yourself as British. In my opinion that makes you dangerous because you have no sense of loyalty to Britain.

Why is Sajid being so silly? Ugh, 5 minutes and I'm done already.

it was wonderful, thank you Iera, we need more engagement. i belive everybody benifited from it.

Britain has LOST any values it had and lost its identity - due to the fact they we are too multicultural, we opened out arm out wide to other cultures and because we are too afraid of offending other culture - we lost ourselves - I just hope we can find what made this nation great again - have people say - they are proud to be British . All the video shows is that people have no idea -

wow those muslim haters ran away from an academic debate im incredibly not surprised.

Its capitalism that clashes with humanity

'Crusader' comment about the Referend.... What a nice insult. This Sajid Varda is a race baiter. Interesting that Islam has NOTING TO DO WITH RACE. It is a religion.

What a boring debate. ( still learnt a great a deal) but without the crazies, all you get is rational discussion. How annoying lol

was waiting so long for this

Did not attend: • Tommy Robinson - Former Head of the English Defence League (EDL) • Anne Marie Waters - Head of Sharia Watch and UKIP • Paul Golding - Head of Britian First Don't you think inviting those kinds of people for a debate is similar to the BBC discussing Islam with the like of Anjem Choudary?

not all Christians wake-up and walk to altar and take communion, they should know what they are taking. what is that in the face of not allowing people to go to whole towns mecca and medina or even go into whole building of mosque?

The chairman is an insolent PR calling the chuchman a Crusader, which is a derogatory term in Muslim rhetoric, and suggesting that T Robinson might not be able to spell. A good start.

if you walk up to the altar to take communion and you had it and later it was discovered you are not qualified , no body will call for you head.

Obviously "British values" is a nebulous and poorly defined thing, but they could, for the sake of argument, have taken them as being roughly congruent to human rights. I think this is important because a society which respects human rights necessarily has to be able to make the judgment as to when the right to religion is in conflict with human rights. For example, we believe that freedom of sexuality is a right for everyone, but with Islam (and other religions) we have to ask: do they tolerate homosexuality? If so, do they do so because they have to or because they truly share the value? I think the fear a lot of people have about Islam is that Muslims owe allegiance only to their own dogma and only respect the rights of others insofar as they have to. I also happen to think this fear isn't entirely rational: it's a fear that leeches in from areas where a political Islamist agenda seems to be the worst thing to ever happen to the world. We know British Muslims reject this, but I would have liked the panel to go one step further and (implicitly) acknowledge that religion is, to an extent, what you make of it, and by this mechanism we should expect to see something like "british islam" to become recognized. I hope people are open to this. I think it's interesting to contrast it with Christianity which naturally has and continues to face a lot of the same challenges. I would have liked to hear the Muslims' perspective on the Church's place in british society and, analogously, what they expect the role of Islam to be going forward. Probably Tommy Robinson suspects they only want 100% Caliphate; I would guess otherwise, but I'd rather hear authentic answers, so if anyone actually reads this and has answers pertaining questions I've asked please respond!

Abdullah is obviously loyal to the global ummah not any country. Not uncommon but he should at least admit it.

YES. Next.

Islam has compatibility issues with most everything, anything with which it has no issues is rectified by creating suitable issue to deal with those things when stumbled across. I've always thought being a Muslim must feel a bit like trying to play hide and seek in the rain forest whilst wearing a really big pink hat, complete with 200 Bright flashing LEDs and a giant fog horn sounding at 15 second intervals.

I am a muslim and i do not consider this debate as impressive or meaningful. I think what IERA guys should do is to first debate with modern day well studied british or non-british muslims who do not carry a theology hat. All good when they say muslims believe in this and muslim believe in that.... its a hypocrtic way of impressing a non-muslim because these might be teachings of islam but no muslims practice it. So he should instead be honest and say Islam instead of Muslims. Abdullah could not answer a simple question if he is british or not. If you have been from an immigrant family and you enjoying all the state's protection and facilities but you can not be so sincere and loyal to accept that? than you are either gullible about your religion or yourself. so either Islam and your God is not that great or you are not a good muslim. Why do we think that being a muslim is like a super-natural. Its not and your daily short comings has nothing to do with your religion. their loads of things all i can not say it here but i am pretty sure that if i was there, they would have been in trouble from me.......

Yes, islam clashes with British values.

Excellent and Educational discussion cleansing the EDL BullCrap.

Just ask Pat Condell, he is British.

What is that weird ticka ticka sound at the end of the video?

my brother the answer is very easy he can not inter to Mecca because he has not the passport of Mecca and Medina and the passport of both cities is ashhadu an LA illaha illa Allah wa ashhadu Anna muhammedan rasul Allah

It's like water and oil, they will never mix!!!

Hamza's invitation to the British to his home was completely mis-understanding his misunderstanding. The guy said that muslims in his area are un-approachable. Now he might be right because these muslims show off themselves collectively as Muslims but in reality they behave our of their cultural vlaues, their dormant and closed cultures back in their homes and their country of origin cultures. Their lack of knowledge of the world, their fear of openness and their fear of the world and so on. It is because of their beliefs which they hve never tried to understand but to taqleed and taqleed and taqleed. We Muslims have completely banned building up an individual character.

the guy at the start was funny lool

Human values are Divine

So far too good, just might end great :)

It doesn't just clash with British values. It seeks to destroy them.

Is the audience gender-segregated? If so, there's your answer.
