On Wednesday 19th February 2020, Madinah Society hosted a debate between Shaykh Asrar Rashid and Christian apologetics; Hatun Tash and Caleb Courneloup at The University of Manchester.

The topic of debate was related to choosing a faith between Islam and Christian. Each debater argued reasons for their faith and against the other. Both parties presented 30 minute opening presentations, followed by a rebuttal period of 20 minutes and 10 minutes respectively, after which the floor was open to audience members to question the speakers.

The audio input wire shortly disconnected between 1:28:54 to 1:29:25. During this time the following was said by Shaykh Asrar Rashid:

In fact, if you go back to the video, your very definition of Trinity is lost in words that people cannot make any rational sense: meaning what is referred to as the hypostatic union - the technical term - with regards to the Trinity.

Why are you...”
