Public Debate: Is Jihad Justifiable? Sami Zaatari vs Alan Craig

NB:



Public Debate: Is Jihad Justifiable? Sami Zaatari vs Alan Craig

by Muslim Debate Initiative (http://www.thedebateinitiative.com/)

In the current political climate, with the war going on in Afghanistan, political instability in the middle East, and multiple insurgencies against occupation and oppression on-going throughout the Muslim world, what is the correct response to this for Muslims who affirm belief in the Quran?

Does Islam command a blindly violent approach, or does it command passivity? Are there only two options? Is the Quranic concept of Jihad the reason for the suffering and predicament of the Muslim world, as some western critics have claimed, or is it Western materialist foreign policy? Is there another explanation altogether?

Muslim Debate Intiative, proudly presents, a debate between International Muslim speaker, Sami Zaatari, and London Councillor & the Head of the Christian Alliance Party, Alan Craig - on the topic 'Jihad on Trial - Is Jihad justifiable?'.
