The '''India–Pakistan cricket rivalry''' is one of the most intense [[Sports rivalry|sports rivalries]] in the world.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/cricket/3536443.stm |title=Cricket's most intense rivalry |date=9 March 2004 |work=BBC News |first=Oliver |last=Brett}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2005/03/07/sports/07iht-cricket.html |title=Cricket: Passion and politics mix as India faces Pakistan |date=8 March 2008 |work=The New York Times |first=Huw |last=Richards |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140827064830/http://www.nytimes.com/2005/03/07/sports/07iht-cricket.html |archive-date=27 August 2014}}</ref> The matches between these neighbouring countries are known for its intensity. It is considered as one of the biggest matches in the world, and is among the most-viewed sport games. It is often termed as the [[El Clásico]] of cricket.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.pixstory.com/story/india-pakistan-the-el-cl-sico-of-cricket/217701|title=India-Pakistan the El Clásico of Cricket|access-date=16 May 2023}}</ref>

The [[India–Pakistan relations|tense relations between the two nations]], resulting from bitter diplomatic relationships and conflict that originated during the [[Partition of British India]] into India and Pakistan in 1947, the [[Indo-Pakistani Wars]], and the [[Kashmir conflict]], laid the foundations for the emergence of an intense sporting rivalry between the two nations who had shared a common [[cricket]]ing heritage.

The two sides first [[Pakistani cricket team in India in 1952–53|played in 1952]], when [[Pakistan national cricket team|Pakistan]] toured [[India national cricket team|India]]. [[Test cricket|Tests]] and, later, [[limited overs cricket|limited overs]] series have been played ever since, although a number of planned tours by both sides have been cancelled or aborted due to political factors. No cricket was played between the two countries between 1962 and 1977 due to two major wars in 1965 and 1971, and the [[Kargil War|1999 Kargil War]] and the [[2008 Mumbai terrorist attacks]] have also interrupted cricketing ties between the two nations.<ref name=gran14jun19>Ingle S (2019) [https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2019/jun/14/india-pakistan-cricket-rivalry-world-cup-old-trafford Not just cricket: India and Pakistan prepare to renew rivalry at World Cup], ''[[The Guardian]]'', 14 June 2019.

The growth of large [[South Asian diaspora|expatriate populations]] from both countries across the world led to neutral venues, including the [[United Arab Emirates]] and [[Canada]], hosting bilateral and multilateral [[One Day International]] (ODI) series involving the two teams and the teams have met during [[International Cricket Council]] (ICC) competitions. Tickets for matches in which the two teams play each other at international competitions are in high demand, with over 800,000 applications for tickets made for the [[2019 Cricket World Cup]] meeting between the two sides;<ref name=gran14jun19/><ref name=tory16jun19/> the television transmission of the match was watched by 273 million viewers.<ref name=bbc24oct21>Lofthouse A (2021) [https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/59030529 T20 World Cup: Pakistan hammer India by 10 wickets to claim famous win], [[BBC Sport]], 24 October 2021. Retrieved 24 October 2021.</ref>

Players from both teams routinely face intense pressure to win and are threatened by extreme reactions in defeat. Extreme fan reactions to defeats in key matches have been recorded, with a limited degree of [[hooliganism]].<ref name=gran14jun19/> At the same time, India–Pakistan matches have also offered opportunities for [[cricket diplomacy]] as a means to improve relations between the two countries by allowing heads of state to exchange visits and cricket followers from either country to travel to the other to watch the matches.<ref name=tory16jun19/>

==History==
{{See also|India–Pakistan relations}}
The [[Partition of British India]] in 1947 that led to the creation of independent Indian and Pakistani states was characterised by bloody conflict between ethnic groups that left one million people dead and led to the mass-migration of an estimated ten million people to the nation of their choice. The legacy of Partition and subsequent territorial disputes have helped create intense rivalries in [[field hockey]], [[association football]], and especially in [[cricket]], which had been developed during [[British Raj|British colonial rule]] and is the most popular sport in both nations.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.thecricketmonthly.com/story/1098404/india-fans-v-pakistan-fans---a-british-rivalry |title=Frenemies forever |work=The Cricket Monthly |first=Vithushan |last=Ehantharajah |date=June 2017|access-date=4 June 2017}}</ref>

Pakistan became a member of the [[Imperial Cricket Conference]] (now [[International Cricket Council|ICC]]) in 1948,{{efn-ua|The Imperial Cricket Conference was renamed the International Cricket Conference in 1965 and later became the International Cricket Council. It organises international cricket across the globe.}} becoming a Full Member{{efn-ua|Full Member status grants the member the right to play in Test matches.}} in July 1952.{{efn-ua|The Indian cricket team had been awarded Full Member status in 1926 and prior to Partition had represented the whole of [[British India]].}} Their tour of India later the same year saw the team play their first Test matches. They lost the first Test in [[Delhi]] to India, but won the second Test in [[Lucknow]], which led to an angry reaction from the home crowd against the Indian players. India clinched the Test series after winning the third Test in [[Bombay]], but the intense pressure affected the players of both teams to the point that they pursued mainly defensive tactics that led to drawn matches and whole series without a victory.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cricket.com/news/india-pakistan-decoded-an-imperfect-rivalry-governed-by-politics-1661605870517|title=India-Pakistan, Decoded: An imperfect rivalry governed by politics|access-date=25 May 2023}}</ref> When India toured Pakistan in 1955, thousands of Indian fans were granted visas to go to the Pakistani city of [[Lahore]] to watch the Test match, but both the 1955 series and Pakistan's tour of India in 1961 ended in drawn series, with neither team being able to win a single Test match. Complaints about the fairness of umpires became routine.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://indianexpress.com/article/explained/india-pakistan-cricket-and-politics-5321950/|title=India-Pakistan, cricket and politics|access-date=25 May 2023}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/top-stories/1965-the-year-india-pakistan-began-sparring-in-sports/articleshow/48738942.cms|title=1965: The year India, Pakistan began sparring in sports|access-date=25 May 2023}}</ref>

The [[Indo-Pakistani War of 1965]] and subsequent [[Indo-Pakistani War of 1971|War of 1971]] put a hold on matches between the two sides that lasted till 1978, when [[Indian cricket team in Pakistan in 1978–79|India toured Pakistan]] and cricket between the two countries resumed for a brief period.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.dawn.com/news/1222441|title=After the 17-year-itch: The historic 1978 Indo-Pak cricket series|access-date=19 May 2023}}</ref> In the post-1971 period, politics became a direct factor in the holding of cricketing events. India has suspended cricketing ties with Pakistan several times following terrorist attacks or other hostilities. The resumption of cricketing ties in 1978 came with the emergence of heads of government in both India and Pakistan who were not directly connected with the 1971 war and coincided with their formal initiatives to normalise bilateral relations. Shortly after a period of belligerency during the [[Operation Brasstacks]] [[Military exercise|war games]], [[Pakistani president]] [[Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq|Zia-ul-Haq]] was invited to watch the India–Pakistan Test being played in the Indian city of [[Jaipur]]. This form of [[cricket diplomacy]] has occurred several times. Pakistan toured India in 1979,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.sportskeeda.com/cricket/flashback-famous-1979-test-between-india-and-pakistan-in-delhi|title=Recalling the famous 1979 Test between India and Pakistan in Delhi|access-date=25 May 2023}}</ref> but an Indian tour of Pakistan in 1984 was cancelled mid-way through the series due to the [[Assassination of Indira Gandhi|assassination of Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.sportskeeda.com/cricket/sk-flashback-when-indira-gandhi-s-assassination-led-to-india-s-tour-of-pakistan-in-1984-85-being-cancelled-midway|title=SK Flashback: When Indira Gandhi’s assassination led to India’s tour of Pakistan being cancelled mid-way|access-date=25 May 2023}}</ref>

In the late 1980s and for most of the 1990s, India and Pakistan played each other only at neutral venues such as [[Sharjah (emirate)|Sharjah]] in the United Arab Emirates and in the Canadian city of [[Toronto]], where large audiences of expatriates regularly watched matches between the sides.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/cricket/sharjah-was-what-it-was-purely-because-of-india-pakistan-matches-asif-iqbal-101634902161985.html|title=Sharjah was what it was purely because of India-Pakistan matches: Asif Iqbal|access-date=23 May 2023}}</ref> The series between the teams in Canada in the 1990s and early 2000s were officially known as the "Friendship Cup".

The rise of multinational competitions such as the [[Cricket World Cup]], [[ICC T20 World Cup]], [[ICC Champions Trophy]], the [[Austral-Asia Cup]], and the [[Asia Cup]] led to more regular, albeit briefer, contests between the two sides.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.news18.com/cricketnext/news/a-look-back-at-india-pakistan-encounters-in-icc-events-india-lead-arch-rivals-14-3-4094858.html|title=A Look Back at India-Pakistan Encounters in ICC Events; India Lead Arch-rivals 14-3|access-date=25 May 2023}}</ref>

In 1999, immediately following [[Indian Prime Minister]] [[Atal Bihari Vajpayee]]'s historic visit to Pakistan, the Pakistani team toured India for a series of Test matches and One Day Internationals. The [[Kargil War]] later in the year caused tensions between the countries and cricket was again suspended. Vajpayee's peace initiative of 2003 led to India touring Pakistan after a gap of almost 15 years. Subsequent exchange tours were held in 2005 and 2006 before the [[2008 Mumbai attacks]] led to the suspension of India's planned tour of Pakistan in 2009 and all future engagements in Pakistan.<ref>{{cite news |first=Steve |last=Herman |title=India Cancels Cricket Tour of Pakistan |date=18 December 2008 |publisher=Voice of America |url=http://voanews.com/english/2008-12-18-voa16.cfm |work=VOA News | access-date = 3 January 2009}}</ref> India has refused to play any form of series against Pakistan since then.<ref name="timesofindia.indiatimes.com">{{Cite news |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/sports/cricket/news/cant-force-india-to-play-bilateral-series-against-pakistan-icc/articleshow/60518531.cms |title=India v Pakistan: Can't force India to play bilateral series against Pakistan: ICC | Cricket News - Times of India |website=[[The Times of India]]|date=14 September 2017 }}</ref>

==Players who have played for both teams==
Prior to the [[Partition of India]] in 1947 India had played cricket, having first played as an international side in 1932. Following Partition, Pakistan was created and began playing as an independent nation, making their Test match debut in 1952 [[Pakistani cricket team in India in 1952–53|during a tour of India]].

Three players played for Pakistan after appearing for India. They are:
*[[Amir Elahi]] – One Test for India against Australia at Sydney in 1947; five Tests for Pakistan against India in 1952
*[[Gul Mohammad]] – Eight Tests for India between 1946 and 1955; one Test for Pakistan in 1956
*[[Abdul Hafeez Kardar]] – Three Tests for India in 1946; 23 Tests for Pakistan between 1948 and 1958

After Partition, Gul Mohammad continued to play for India until 1955 and played against Pakistan in their first tour of India in 1951–52. Both Amir Elahi and Abdul Hafeez Kardar played for Pakistan on the tour. Abdul Hafeez Kardar went on to play for Pakistan against India during [[Indian cricket team in Pakistan in 1954–55|India's first tour of Pakistan in 1954–55]].

== Public and government reaction to the rivalry ==
Cricket is a significant sport within both countries and matches involving them can provoke what has been described as "a strong response".<ref name=bbc3nov21>{{Cite news |date=3 November 2021 |title=T20 World Cup: When Indian fans are jailed for celebrating Pakistan's win |language=en-GB |work=BBC News |url=https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-59130556|access-date=14 November 2021}}</ref>

===Test debut===
Pujara was selected for the Indian squad for the 2 match home Test series against [[Australia national cricket team|Australia]] in 2010, replacing [[Yuvraj Singh]]. He made his debut in the second Test of the series on 9 October 2010 at [[Bangalore]] after both [[Gautam Gambhir]] and VVS Laxman were down with injuries sustained in the First Test.

With India needing 207 runs to win, he made 72 before being bowled by an [[arm ball]] from [[Nathan Hauritz]].<ref>{{Cite web|date=2020-08-11|title=Why Dhoni Promoted Pujara To No.3 Over Dravid On Test Debut|url=https://wisden.com/stories/why-dhoni-promoted-pujara-to-number-three-over-dravid-on-test-debut|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200918134248/https://wisden.com/stories/why-dhoni-promoted-pujara-to-number-three-over-dravid-on-test-debut|archive-date=18 September 2020|access-date=2020-11-05|website=Wisden|language=en-GB}}</ref>

In August 2012, he made a comeback into the team and made his first International Test century, 159 against [[New Zealand cricket team|New Zealand]] at [[Hyderabad]].

He was selected in India's squad to play four test matches [[English cricket team in India in 2012–13|against England]].

He was also named man of the match for his inning. He continued his good form when he made another hundred in the second match at [[Wankhede Stadium]], [[Mumbai]]. He not only made big scores in next two matches but end the series as second highest run scorer behind England captain [[Alastair Cook]] with 438 runs.

He became the 2nd fastest Indian to get to 1,000 Test runs, during the course of his double hundred against [[Australia cricket team|Australia]] in March 2013, at [[Hyderabad]], where he put on a 370-run record 2nd wicket partnership with [[Murali Vijay]]. Only [[Vinod Kambli]] was faster.

Pujara is also the 12th fastest of all time. In terms of the number of tests (11 matches), he joined the legendary [[Sunil Gavaskar]] for the quickest Indian to reach the mark. Pujara had a brilliant test series against [[Australia cricket team|Australia]] scoring 419 runs, only second to [[Murali Vijay]]'s 430 in which he slammed a double ton's 204 and two half-centuries (52 and 82).<ref>{{cite news|url=http://stats.espncricinfo.com/india/content/records/283173.html|title=Fastest to 1,000 Test runs |publisher=ESPNCricinfo|date=4 March 2013}}</ref>

As Indian opener [[Virender Sehwag]] was struggling out of form, it provided the opportunity for Pujara who hit double and triple tons in successive Ranji trophy matches to prove his ability in shorter versions of the game, as he was selected in the 15 member squad for the ODI series against England, but was injured in practice.

===Return to form===
Pujara continued to work on his game however he remained in the reckoning for a national comeback. He made the most of an injury setback to [[Murali Vijay]] in the 2015 series in Sri Lanka, reminding the selectors of his mettle by carrying his bat through his epic unbeaten 145 on an uncharacteristically seaming wicket at the SSC, Colombo, paving the way for an Indian win in the decider. Pujara has raised the bar even further since then, hammering routine hundreds during India's long home season and the odd series in Sri Lanka and the West Indies.
In the first Test of [[Australian cricket team in India in 2016–17|Australia's 2016–17 tour of India]] in [[Pune]], Pujara was dismissed for 6 and 31 in the two innings, with India losing the match cheaply.

==Host selection==
The ICC announced on 30 April 2006 which countries would host the 2011 World Cup. Australia and New Zealand had also bid for the tournament; if successful, they would have shared the hosting equally, leaving the location of the final still to be decided. The [[Tasman Sea|Trans–Tasman]] bid, ''Beyond Boundaries'', was the only one delivered to the ICC headquarters in [[Dubai]] before the 1 March deadline, but the Asian bidders were granted an extension by the ICC.<ref name="CI30Apr">{{cite web|url=http://content-uk.cricinfo.com/ci/content/current/story/245789.html|title=Asia to host 2011 World Cup|publisher=Cricinfo|access-date=30 April 2006 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060516085605/http://content-uk.cricinfo.com/ci/content/current/story/245789.html |archive-date=16 May 2006 |url-status=live }}</ref> The New Zealand government had given assurance that [[Zimbabwe]] would be allowed to compete in the tournament, following political discussions in the country over whether their cricket team should be allowed to [[New Zealand cricket team in Zimbabwe in 2005–06|tour Zimbabwe in 2005]].{{Citation needed|date=July 2012}}

==Format==
Late in 2007, the four host nations agreed on a revised format for the 2011 World Cup, identical to that of the [[1996 Cricket World Cup|1996 World Cup]], except that there would be 14 teams instead of 12. The first round of the tournament would consist of two groups of seven teams. Each team in a group would play all the others once, and the top four from each group would qualify for the quarter-finals.<ref>[http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,13241_5615446,00.html New format for World Cup] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110210015020/http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,13241_5615446,00.html |date=10 February 2011 }} Sky Sports.

===Pakistan loses co-host status===
In April 2009 the ICC announced that Pakistan had lost its right to co-host the 2011 World Cup because of concerns about the "uncertain security situation" in the country, especially in the aftermath of the [[2009 attack on the Sri Lanka national cricket team]] in [[Lahore]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://content.cricinfo.com/ci/content/story/400154.html|title=World Cup matches moved out of Pakistan|publisher=Cricinfo|access-date=17 April 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090422162811/http://content.cricinfo.com/ci/content/story/400154.html |archive-date=22 April 2009 |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>[http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12343_5200746,00.html Pakistan loses 2011 World Cup] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120119024631/http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12343_5200746,00.html |date=19 January 2012 }} Sky Sports.

LavadaTitheradge: Arabic greeting meaning

{{Short description|Arabic greeting meaning "Peace be upon you"}}
{{redirect2|Salaam|Salam||Salaam (disambiguation)}}
[[File:assalamu-aleykum.svg|thumb|''salamu alaykum'' written in the [[Thuluth]] style of [[Arabic calligraphy]]]]

'''''As-salamu alaykum''''' ({{lang-ar|ٱلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ}}, {{transl|ar|as-salāmu ʿalaykum}}, {{IPA-ar|as.sa.laː.mu ʕa.lej.kum|lang|Ar-السلام_عليكم.oga}}), also written '''''salamun alaykum''''' and typically rendered in English as '''''salam alaykum''''', is a greeting in [[Arabic]] that means 'Peace be upon you'. The {{lang|ar-Latn|salām}} ({{lang|ar|سَلَام}}, meaning 'peace') has become a religious [[salutation]] for [[Muslims]]<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.ahadith.net/bukhari/book/79/chapter/1/hadith/6229 |title=Sayings of the Messenger (s.a.w) – Sahih Al-Bukhari- |publisher=ahadith.net |access-date=2019-03-25}}</ref><ref name="Ccnmtl">{{cite web |url=http://ccnmtl.columbia.edu/projects/mmt/mxp/notes/5140.html|title='As-Salaamu-Alaikum' and 'Wa-Alaikum-as-Salaam' |publisher=ccnmtl.columbia.edu |access-date=2013-07-27}}</ref> worldwide when greeting each other, though its use as a greeting pre-dates [[Islam]], and is also common among [[Arabic]] speakers of other religions (such as [[Arab Christians]] and [[Mizrahi Jews]]).

In colloquial speech, often only the first part of the phrase (so: {{lang|ar-Latn|salām}}, 'peace') is used to greet a person. The typical response to the greeting is {{lang|ar-Latn|[[wa alaykumu s-salam|wa ʿalaykumu s-salām]]}} ({{lang|ar|وَعَلَيْكُمُ ٱلسَّلَامُ}}, {{IPA-ar|wa ʔa.lej.kum mus.sa.laːm|lang|Ar-وعليكم_السلام.oga}}, 'and peace be upon you'). The complete phrase is {{lang|ar-Latn|as-salāmu ʿalaykum wa-raḥmatu -llāhi wa-barakātuh{{smallsup|ū}}}} ({{lang|ar|ٱلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ ٱللَّٰهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ}}, {{IPA-ar|as.sa.laː.mu ʕa.lej.kum wa.raħ.ma.tu‿ɫ.ɫaː.hi wa.ba.ra.kaː.tu.huː|}}), 'Peace be upon you, as well as the mercy of [[God]] and His blessings'.

This greeting in its abbreviated form, {{lang|ar-Latn|salām}} <ref>{{Cite web |last=assalamu |first=alaikum |title=Assalamu Alaikum सलाम करने के 38 सुन्नते और आदाब In HIndi |url=https://www.irfani-islam.in/2021/11/assalamu-alaikum.html |access-date=2022-03-01 |website=Irfani-Islam}}</ref>({{lang|ar|سَلَام}}), has come to be used as the general salutation in other languages as well.

[[Cognate]] [[Semitic languages|Semitic language]] parallels include the [[Aramaic]]/[[Syriac language|Classical Syriac]] {{lang|syc-Latn|šlāmā ʿalḵōn}} ({{lang|syc|ܫܠܵܡܵܐ ܥܲܠܟ݂ܘܿܢ}}), and the [[Hebrew]] {{lang|he-Latn|[[shalom aleichem]]}} ({{lang|he|שָׁלוֹם עֲלֵיכֶם}} {{lang|he-Latn|shālôm ʻalêḵem}}).<ref name="auto">{{Cite Merriam-Webster|shalom aleichem|access-date=May 19, 2018}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.collinsdictionary.com/amp/english/shalom-aleichem |title=shalom aleichem |work=Collins Dictionary |access-date=May 19, 2018 }}</ref> In Christian denominations that perform [[Mass (liturgy)|Mass]] or other liturgical services, the priest or pastor and the congregation often use the salutation, "peace be with you", sometimes replying, "and also with you".

==Pronunciation==
The phrase is normally pronounced according to local [[Varieties of Arabic|dialects]] of speakers and is very often shortened.

For example:
* In Egypt: {{IPA-arz|sæˈlæːmu ʕæˈleːku|}}, {{IPA-arz|we ʕæˈleːkom es.sæˈlæːm|}}
* By native English-speaking Muslims: {{IPAc-en|s|æ|l|ɑː|m|uː|_|æ|l|aɪ|k|ʊ|m}}, {{IPAc-en|w|æ|l|aɪ|k|ʊ|m|_|s|æ|l|ɑː|m}}

==Grammatical variants==
The expression commonly uses the second person plural masculine, even when used to address one person. It may be modified by choosing the appropriate [[Arabic grammar#Enclitic pronouns|enclitic pronoun]] to address a person in the masculine and feminine singular form, the dual form, or the feminine plural form. The conjugations are as follows (note: according to the standard pronunciation rules of [[Classical Arabic]], the last short vowel in each word is not pronounced in [[pausa]]):

A third-person variant, [[Peace be upon him|''ʿalayhi as-salām'', "peace be upon him"]], is often used by Muslims for prophets other than Muhammad and other holy personalities, such as angels.

== In Islam ==
{{Fiqh|etiquette}}
According to Islamic tradition, the origin of the greeting "Peace be upon you" dates back to the first human, Adam:

[[Abu Huraira]] reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Allah said: Go and greet with peace these groups of assembled angels and listen to how they greet you, for this will be the greeting among your progeny. Adam said: '''Peace be upon you'''. The angels said: '''Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah'''. Thus, they added the mercy of Allah” <ref>Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 5873, Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 2841</ref>

The final Prophet said, “None of you will enter paradise until you believe and you will not believe until you love one another. Shall I not tell you about something which, if you do it, you will love one another? Spread salaam amongst yourselves.” <ref>[Muslim (54), Aḥmad (2/391), and al-Tirmidhī (2513) narrated from Abū Hurairah]</ref>

It is also stated that one should give the Salam greeting upon entering a house. This is based upon a verse of the Quran: "However, when you enter houses, greet one another with a greeting ˹of peace˺ from Allah, blessed and good. This is how Allah makes His revelations clear to you, so perhaps you will understand." ([[An-Nur]] 24:61).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://quran.com/24/61 |title=Surat An-Nur [24:61] - The Noble Qur'an - القرآن الكريم |publisher=Quran.com |access-date=2013-07-27}}</ref>

The phrase appears a total of 7 times in the Quran, each time as ''salamun ʿalaykum'' ({{lang-ar|سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ|link=no}}). In [[Classical Arabic]], used in the [[Quran|Qur'an]] and early [[Hadith manuscripts]], the phrase is spelled as {{lang|ar|ٱلسَّلَٰمُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَتُ ٱللَّٰهِ وَبَرَكَٰتُهُ}}. In [[Rasm]], it is written as {{lang|ar|السلم علىکم ورحمٮ ال‍له وٮرکٮه}}.

* [[Surah]] [[Al-An'am]] (6), [[Ayah]] 54:
{{quote|{{lang|ar|وَإِذَا جَآءَكَ ٱلَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِآيَاتِنَا فَقُلْ '''سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ''' ۖ كَتَبَ رَبُّكُمْ عَلَىٰ نَفْسِهِ ٱلرَّحْمَةَ ۖ أَنَّهُۥ مَنْ عَمِلَ مِنكُمْ سُوٓءًۢا بِجَهَالَةٍۢ ثُمَّ تَابَ مِنۢ بَعْدِهِۦ وَأَصْلَحَ فَأَنَّهُۥ غَفُورٌۭ رَّحِيمٌۭ}} 
“When those who have faith in Our signs come to you, say, ‘'''Peace to you!''' Your Lord has made mercy incumbent upon Himself: whoever of you commits an evil [deed] out of ignorance and then repents after that and reforms, then He is indeed All-Forgiving, All-Merciful.’”}}
* Surah [[Al-A'raf]] (7), Ayah 46:
{{quote|{{lang|ar|وَبَيْنَهُمَا حِجَابٌۭ ۚ وَعَلَى ٱلْأَعْرَافِ رِجَالٌۭ يَعْرِفُونَ كُلًّۢا بِسِيمَاهُمْ ۚ وَنَادَوْا۟ أَصْحَابَ ٱلْجَنَّةِ أَن '''سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ''' ۚ لَمْ يَدْخُلُوهَا وَهُمْ يَطْمَعُونَ}} 
“And there will be a veil between them. And on the Elevations will be certain men who recognize each of them by their mark. They will call out to the inhabitants of paradise, ‘'''Peace be to you!'''’ They will not have entered it, though they would be eager to do so.”}}
* Surah [[Ar-Ra'd]] (13), Ayah 24:
{{quote|{{lang|ar|'''سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُم''' بِمَا صَبَرْتُمْ ۚ فَنِعْمَ عُقْبَى ٱلدَّارِ}} 
“‘'''Peace be to you''', for your patience.’ How excellent is the reward of the [ultimate] abode!”}}
* Surah [[An-Nahl]] (16), Ayah 32:
{{quote|{{lang|ar|ٱلَّذِينَ تَتَوَفَّاهُمُ ٱلْمَلَائِكَةُ طَيِّبِينَ ۙ يَقُولُونَ '''سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمُ''' ٱدْخُلُوا۟ ٱلْجَنَّةَ بِمَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ}} 
“Those whom the angels take away while they are pure. They say [to them], ‘'''Peace be to you'''! Enter paradise because of what you used to do.’”}}
*Surah [[Maryam (surah)|Maryam]] (19), Ayah 47:
{{quote|{{lang|ar|قَالَ '''سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكَ''' ۖ سَأَسْتَغْفِرُ لَكَ رَبِّي ۖ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ بِي حَفِيًّۭا}} 
“He said, ‘'''Peace be to you'''! I shall plead with my Lord to forgive you. Indeed He is gracious to me.’”}}
*Surah [[Al-Qasas]] (28), Ayah 55:
{{quote|{{lang|ar|وَإِذَا سَمِعُوا۟ ٱللَّغْوَ أَعْرَضُوا۟ عَنْهُ وَقَالُوا۟ لَنَا أَعْمَالُنَا وَلَكُمْ أَعْمَالُكُمْ '''سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ''' لَا نَبْتَغِي ٱلْجَاهِلِينَ}}

*Surah [[Az-Zumar]] (39), Ayah 73:
{{quote|{{lang|ar|وَسِيقَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّقَوْا۟ رَبَّهُمْ إِلَى ٱلْجَنَّةِ زُمَرًا ۖ حَتَّىٰ إِذَا جَآءُوهَا وَفُتِحَتْ أَبْوَابُهَا وَقَالَ لَهُمْ خَزَنَتُهَا '''سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ''' طِبْتُمْ فَٱدْخُلُوهَا خَالِدِينَ}} 
“Those who are wary of their Lord will be led to paradise in throngs. When they reach it, and its gates are opened, its keepers will say to them, ‘'''Peace be to you'''! You are welcome! Enter it to remain [forever].’”}}

Other variants, such as ''salamun ʿalā'' ({{lang|ar|سَلَامٌ عَلَىٰ}}), or the term ''salam'' ({{lang|ar|سَلَام}}) alone is also mentioned in several other Ayahs of the Qur'an.

==Usage by non-Arabic speakers==
* [[Cognate]] [[Semitic languages|Semitic language]] parallels include the [[Aramaic]]/[[Syriac language|Classical Syriac]] ''šlāmā ʿalḵōn'' (ܫܠܵܡܵܐ ܥܲܠܟ݂ܘܿܢ), and the [[Hebrew]] ''[[Shalom aleichem]]'' ({{lang|he|שָׁלוֹם עֲלֵיכֶם}} ''shālôm ʻalêḵem'').<ref name="auto"/><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.collinsdictionary.com/amp/english/shalom-aleichem|title=shalom aleichem|work=Collins Dictionary|access-date=May 19, 2018}}</ref>
* In [[Iran]], [[Afghanistan]], [[Azerbaijan]] and [[Tajikistan]], ''Salâm'' ({{lang|fa|{{Nastaliq|سلام}}}}) is used alone more frequently, with occasional use of ''Salam-o aleykom'' and the more common ''beh salâmat'' ({{lang|fa|{{Nastaliq|به سلامت}}}}), meaning "[go] with peace". Goodbye is supplanted by a ''Khudâ hâfez'' ({{lang-fa|{{Nastaliq|خدا حافظ}}}}), meaning "with the protection of God".
* In [[Albania]] and [[Kosovo]], a diminutive form in the Albanian language, ''Selamun Alejkem'' or ''Selamun Alejqum'' is rarely used, the 'q' being a voiceless palatal stop typical of [[Turks in the Balkans|Balkan Turkish]] and Thracian Turkish phonology.<ref>{{cite journal |url=https://humstatic.uchicago.edu/slavic/archived/papers/Friedman-TurkEncyc.pdf |title=Balkan Turkish in Macedonia and Adjacent Areas |first=Victor A. |last=Friedman |publisher=[[University of Chicago]] |access-date=18 December 2019 |pages=12}}</ref> Similarly, [[Bosniaks]] and [[Macedonian Muslims]] use the phrase "{{lang|bs|selam alejkum}}" ([[Cyrillic]]: {{lang|mk|селам алејкум}}).
* In [[Amharic]], the native [[Amharic]] term ''Selam'' is used in place of ''Tadias'', which is the equivalent of "What's up".
* In [[Turkey]], [[Kazakhstan]] and [[Kyrgyzstan]], many religious people use "''Äs-sälamwaleykum''" or "{{lang|tr|selamun aleyküm}}" and shake hands and it is the same for saying "Hello"; more secular and non-religious people say "''Selam''" and in Kazakhstan say "''Sälem''" or "''Sälemetsız be''" as an equivalent to "Hello" or "Hi". However, many Turks pronounce it differently as "''Selamün aleyküm''".
* In [[Pakistan]], the greeting is also associated with shaking right hands and is also often accompanied with a hug when meeting infrequently (only between the same gender). In some places, people put a hand on their heart as they shake your hand and greet. Also, the full greeting (As-salamu alaykum) is preferred versus the shorter greeting of "salam" or "salamu alaykum". Goodbye is supplanted by a "Khuda Hafiz" or the variation "Allah Hafiz", both of which mean "May God protect you".
* In [[India]], the greeting mostly among Muslims is a simple handshake or hug, As-salamu alaykum ({{Lang-hi|असलम अलैकुम}}) or the shorter greeting "Salam" is used in informal situations. Goodbye is supplanted by a "Khuda Hafiz" or the alternative form "Allah Hafiz" ({{Lang-hi|अल्लाह हफीज|translit=Allāh Hāphêj}}), both of which mean "May God protect you".
* In [[Bangladesh]], Assalamu alaikum ({{lang-bn|আসসালামু আলাইকুম}}) is the most common Muslim greeting.<ref>{{cite journal |url=https://files.peacecorps.gov/multimedia/audio/languagelessons/bangladesh/BD_Bangla_Language_Lessons.pdf |title=Introduction to the bangla language |journal=[[Peace Corps]] |page=6 |access-date=18 December 2019}}</ref> Some Muslims greet their elders with these words whilst raising their right hand to the forehead.<ref>{{cite Banglapedia|author=Enamul Haq|article=Customs and Traditions}}</ref> Assalamu alaikum is even used as to say goodbye, while many others say "Khoda Hafez" or "Allah Hafez" ({{Lang-bn|আল্লাহ হাফেজ|translit=Āllāha hāphêj}}) "May God protect you".
* In [[Uzbekistan]] and [[Turkmenistan]], Assalomu aleykum is used as an informal greeting.
* In [[Indonesia]], the greeting is sometimes mixed with other [[Interfaith greetings in Indonesia|greeting phrases of other religions]].
* Shortening the greeting to acronyms, such as ''A.S.'', ''As'kum'' (in [[Malaysia]]), or ''AsA'' is becoming common amongst Internet users in chat rooms and by people using [[Short Message Service|SMS]]. This trend is similar to writing (S) or SAWS in place of [[Peace be upon him (Islam)|''ṣallā llāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam'']].
* In [[Chechnya]] and other parts of the Caucasus, Salamun Alaykum ({{Lang-ce|Саламун алайкум}}) is used to say hello, in [[Ossetia]], a corrupted version of Salam is used ({{Lang-os|Салам}}).
* In [[Senegal]] which has a majority of Muslims with [[Tasawwuf]]-orientation, it is a common greeting. Spelled and pronounced in [[Wolof language|Wolof]]: "a-sala māleykum", with the reply being "må-lekum salām."
* In [[Xinjiang, China]], "Essalam eleykum" is used as a greeting by [[Uyghurs]], and the reply is "We-eleykum essalam".
* In [[Portugal]], the expression [[wikt:salamaleque|Salamaleque]] gained a totally distinct and curious meaning: due to the habit of [[Al-Andalus|Iberian Arabs]] to bow and wave their hand when greeting a person, the expression "Salamaleque" is applied to exaggerated movements or acts in order to appear to be formal, entertaining or fancy. "Os rapazes chegaram cheios de salamaleques".
* In [[Italy]], [[:wikt:salamelecco|''Salamelecco'']] has a similar meaning, referring to excessive courtesy and politeness.
* In [[France]], [[:wikt:salamalec|''salamalec'']] has similar meaning, referring to excessive flattery.
*In [[Malta]], [[wiktionary:is-sliem_għalikom|''Is-sliem għalikom'']] is often used in [[Catholic Church in Malta|Catholic Church]] masses as a way of greeting, often by the priest, as a way of saying "peace be upon you". As the [[Maltese language]] derives from [[Arabic]], it inherited and still uses Arabic terms for religion amongst other things.
*In the [[Maldives]], "{{lang|dv|އައްސަލާމް ޢަލައިކުމް}}" (''assalaam 'alaikum'') is used as a common formal greeting, used similar to "hello".<ref>[https://english2dhivehi.com/ Common Phrases]</ref>
*In [[Nigeria]], the phrase "''assalamu alaikum''" is used as a formal greeting by Muslims.
*In [[Kurdish languages|Kurdish]], the phrase "{{lang|ku|selam eleykum|italic=yes}}" is used as a formal greeting among, often shortened to just "{{lang|ku|selam|italic=yes}}".
* In [[Russia]], Muslims use variations of the phrase, such as "{{lang|ru|салам алейкум}}" ([[Russian language|Russian]]) and "{{lang|tt|салам алайкум}}" ([[Tatar language|Tatar]]).

The '''University of Bedfordshire''' is a [[Public university|public]] [[research university]] with campuses in [[Bedfordshire]] and [[Buckinghamshire]], England. The University has roots in further and higher education from 1882: it gained university status in 1993 as the '''University of Luton'''. The University changed its name to the University of Bedfordshire in 2006, following the merger of the University of Luton with the Bedford campus of [[De Montfort University]].

It is spread across five campuses: there are three in Bedfordshire, in [[Bedford]] and [[Luton]]; and two in Buckinghamshire, in [[Aylesbury]] (for students studying [[Nursing]] and [[Midwifery]]), and in [[Milton Keynes]]. It is also active in [[London]] and [[Birmingham]], as well as globally, with a growing portfolio of international partnerships as far afield as [[Egypt]], [[Vietnam]], [[Oman]] and [[Mauritius]].

The University entered the [[Research Assessment Exercise]] in 2014 and achieved an improvement of 22 places in the REF Power Ranking – the fourth largest improvement in the sector with nearly half of its research considered to be world leading or internationally excellent.<ref>{{Cite web|title=University praised for REF 2014 results - beds.ac.uk {{!}} University of Bedfordshire|url=https://www.beds.ac.uk/news/2014/december/university-praised-for-ref-2014-results/|access-date=2021-08-03|website=www.beds.ac.uk}}</ref>{{update needed|date=September 2023}}

==History==
The University of Luton had its roots in the Luton Modern School, which was established in 1908 and the Luton Modern School and Technical Institute which opened in 1937. This became Luton College of Higher Education following the merger of Luton College of Technology and [[Putteridge Bury]] College of Education, in 1976. It obtained university status in 1993.

The Bedford campus of De Montfort University was originally part of the [[Bedford College of Higher Education]], which stemmed from Bedford Teacher Training College, founded in 1882, and Bedford Physical Training College, founded in 1903. The University was created by the merger of the University of Luton and the Bedford campus of [[De Montfort University]] in August 2006, following approval by the [[Privy Council of the United Kingdom|Privy Council]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=2006-08-03 |title=Luton University: Taking on a new identity |url=http://www.independent.co.uk/news/education/higher/luton-university-taking-on-a-new-identity-410287.html |access-date=2020-06-19 |website=The Independent |language=en}}</ref>

==Campuses==
The University's two main campuses are in [[Luton]] and [[Bedford]].In Buckinghamshire, the dedicated [[Mary Seacole]] [[Aylesbury]] campus for Healthcare students opened in February 2020 at [[Stoke Mandeville Hospital]], in partnership with [[Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust]] (BHT).
A smaller fourth campus at Milton Keynes became part of the university in 2012, offering a variety of degree courses as well as Continuing Professional Development (CPD) programmes.<ref name="UCMK2012">{{cite web|url=https://www.beds.ac.uk/news/2012/april/university-college-milton-keynes-to-open-in-2012|title='University College Milton Keynes' to open in 2012 - beds.ac.uk|website=www.beds.ac.uk|access-date=23 March 2018}}</ref>

On the outskirts of Luton, is the University’s Putteridge Bury campus. The campus is situated in approximately 30 acres of landscaped gardens. The current building was completed in 1911 and was designed by architects Sir [[Ernest George]] and [[Alfred Yeats]] in the style of [[Chequers]], having had various redesigns and rebuilds over the years.<ref>James Dyer, The Stopsley Book, Book Castle, 1998, {{ISBN|1-871199-04-2}}, pp. 56–64.</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-163103-putteridge-bury-luton-college-of-higher-|title=Putteridge Bury (Luton College of Higher Education) - Offley - Hertfordshire - England - British Listed Buildings|author=Good Stuff|access-date=16 July 2015}}</ref>

The site is utilised for University events including graduations, academic research symposia and seminars, The University of Bedfordshire Business School's postgraduate programmes, as well as a wide variety of public and private events including conferences, weddings, funeral receptions and public holiday functions.

===Luton Campus===

The University’s Luton campus is located in the town centre and is home to a purpose built [[Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics|STEM]] building, seven-storey library, a Postgraduate & CPD Centre, as well as facilities to support each of the courses on offer.

=== Mary Seacole, Aylesbury Campus ===

The University’s Mary Seacole Campus opened in February 2020 at the Stoke Mandeville Hospital in Aylesbury and in partnership with Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust (BHT).

The three-storey building, located on the hospital site, provides a specialist skills lab, set out as a hospital ward with state-of-the-art audio visual technology. There are also a suite of classrooms, a library, social learning spaces and computer study facilities.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Aylesbury campus - beds.ac.uk {{!}} University of Bedfordshire|url=https://www.beds.ac.uk/about-us/campuses/aylesbury/|access-date=2021-08-03|website=www.beds.ac.uk}}</ref>

===Milton Keynes Campus===
The Milton Keynes campus was originally established with the long term aim of becoming a new, independent university in Milton Keynes.<ref name="Guardian">[https://www.theguardian.com/education/2008/sep/23/universitiesnew.highereducation "University ambitions in Milton Keynes"] - [[The Guardian]]</ref>

[[File:Milton Keynes University.JPG|right|thumb|220px|The original University Centre Milton Keynes building at 200 Silbury Boulevard.]]
The institution began as 'the University Centre Milton Keynes' (UCMK), part of [[Milton Keynes College]] and supported by the University of Bedfordshire, the [[University of Northampton]] and the [[Open University]]. It was opened on 29 September 2008, with start-up funding provided by the [[Milton Keynes Partnership]], which purchased the initial building (a former office block) in [[Central Milton Keynes]].

In October 2009, the University of Bedfordshire (acting as lead academic partner) made a successful bid to the [[Higher Education Funding Council for England]] to expand provision at UCMK, one of just six such centres to have achieved this.<ref>[http://www.businessweekly.co.uk/news/academia-research/7615-milton-keynes-university-plans-progress "Milton Keynes University plans progress"] - Business Weekly</ref>

In September 2012 the centre ceased to be part of MK College and became a wholly owned subsidiary of the University of Bedfordshire.<ref>[http://www.beds.ac.uk/news/2012/april/university-college-milton-keynes-to-open-in-2012 'University College Milton Keynes’ to open in 2012]</ref> The university announced plans for a new campus in the city, with the new name of the institution being 'University Campus Milton Keynes', and this was opened at Saxon Court on Avebury Boulevard in September 2013.<ref>[https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-beds-bucks-herts-21895773 New £25m university campus planned for Milton Keynes] - BBC</ref><ref>[http://www.beds.ac.uk/news/2014/september/ucmk-celebrates-first-birthday UCMK celebrates first birthday]</ref>

Since March 2017, the brand 'UCMK' is no longer in use and the campus now operates as University of Bedfordshire Milton Keynes Campus.

Today, under the operation of the University of Bedfordshire, Milton Keynes campus offers foundation degrees, [[bachelor's degree]]s and [[master's degree]]s.<ref>https://www.beds.ac.uk/milton-keynes {{Dead link|date=February 2022}}</ref>

The '''1990–91 Asia Cup''' was the fourth [[Asia Cup]] tournament, and was held in [[India]] between 25 December 1990, and 4 January 1991. Three teams took part in the tournament: [[India national cricket team|India]], [[Sri Lanka national cricket team|Sri Lanka]] and Asian leading associate member [[Bangladesh national cricket team|Bangladesh]]. [[Pakistan national cricket team|Pakistan]] had pulled out of the tournament due to strained political relations with [[India]].

The 1990–91 Asia Cup was a [[round-robin tournament]] where each team played the other once, and the top two teams qualifying for a place in the final. India and Sri Lanka qualified for the final in which India beat Sri Lanka by 7 wickets to win its second consecutive (and third in total) Asia Cup.

==History==
===Twentieth century===
[[File:Library Under Construction 1965.png|thumb|Library under construction in the 1960s]]
The idea for a university in Warwickshire was first mooted shortly after [[World War II]], although it was not founded for a further two decades. A partnership of the city and county councils ultimately provided the impetus for the university to be established on a {{convert|400|acre|km2|adj=on}} site jointly granted by the two authorities.<ref name="rees">Rees, H., ''A University is Born'', Avalon Books, Coventry (1989)</ref> There was some discussion between local sponsors from both the city and county over whether it should be named after Coventry or Warwickshire.<ref name="rees" /> The name "University of Warwick" was adopted, even though [[Warwick]], the county town, lies some {{convert|8|mi|km}} to its southwest and [[Coventry]]'s city centre is only {{convert|3.5|mi|km}} northeast of the campus.<ref>A compromise was proposed by [[Geoffrey Templeman]], Deputy Chairman of the university's planning committee, who later became the first [[Vice-Chancellor]] of Kent University on the border between the City of [[Canterbury]] and the county of [[Kent]] which faced a similar naming issue, and adopted the name [[University of Kent|University of Kent at Canterbury]]. However, the name the 'University of Warwick at Coventry' was not adopted.</ref><ref>[[Graham Martin]], ''From Vision to Reality: the Making of the University of Kent at Canterbury'' (1990) page 29 {{ISBN|0-904938-03-4}}</ref><ref>Its creation was supported by [[University of Birmingham]] Vice-Chancellor [[Sir Robert Aitken]] who acted as 'Godfather to the University of Warwick'. The initial plan was for a university college at Coventry attached to Birmingham but Aitken advised an independent initiative to the University Grants Committee.</ref><ref>Ives, E. (2000). The First Civic University: Birmingham, 1880–1980 – An Introductory History. Birmingham: University of Birmingham Press</ref> The establishment of the University of Warwick was given approval by the government in 1961 and it received its [[Royal Charter]] of Incorporation in 1965. Since then, the university has incorporated the former [[Coventry College of Education]] in 1979 and has extended its land holdings by the continuing purchase of adjoining farm land. The university also benefited from a substantial donation from the family of John 'Jack' Martin, a Coventry businessman who had made a fortune from investment in [[Smirnoff]] vodka, and which enabled the construction of the [[Warwick Arts Centre]].

The university admitted its first, small intake of graduate students in 1964, and took its first 450 undergraduates in October 1965. Since its establishment Warwick has expanded its grounds to {{convert|721|acre|km2|1}}, with many modern buildings and academic facilities, lakes, and woodlands. In the 1960s and 1970s, Warwick had a reputation as a politically radical institution.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.sunion.warwick.ac.uk/30year/protests_and_campaigns.htm |title=University of Warwick Student Union |access-date=30 July 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071102174507/http://www.sunion.warwick.ac.uk/30year/protests_and_campaigns.htm |archive-date=2 November 2007 |url-status=live }}</ref>

Under Vice-Chancellor [[Lord Butterworth]], Warwick was the first UK university to adopt a business approach to higher education, develop close links with the business community and exploit the commercial value of its research. These tendencies were discussed by British historian and then-Warwick lecturer, [[E. P. Thompson]], in his 1970 edited book ''Warwick University Ltd.''.<ref>{{cite book|title=Warwick University Ltd.|last=Thompson|first=E. P.|publisher=Spokesman Press|year=2013|location=Nottingham}}</ref>

The Leicester Warwick Medical School, a new medical school based jointly at Warwick and Leicester University, opened in September 2000.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/948126.stm|title=Medical school's open doors|access-date=10 November 2011|work=BBC News|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030918030718/http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/948126.stm|archive-date=18 September 2003|url-status=live}}</ref>

On the recommendation of then-Prime Minister [[Tony Blair]], [[Bill Clinton]] chose Warwick as the venue for his last major foreign policy address as [[President of the United States|US President]] in December 2000. [[Sandy Berger]], Clinton's [[National Security Advisor (United States)|National Security Advisor]], explaining the decision in a press briefing on 7 December 2000, said that: "Warwick is one of Britain's newest and finest research universities, singled out by Prime Minister Blair as a model both of academic excellence and independence from the government."<ref name=":2">[https://warwick.ac.uk/services/communications/corporate/clinton/whitehousebrief/] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20050505084252/http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/services/communications/corporate/clinton/whitehousebrief/}}</ref>

==Campus==
Warwick is located on the outskirts of [[Coventry]], {{convert|5.5|km|mi|abbr=on|order=flip}} southwest of the city centre (and not in the town of [[Warwick]] as its name suggests). The university's main site comprises three contiguous campuses, all within walking distance of each other. The university also owns a site in [[Wellesbourne]], acquired in 2004 when it merged with [[Horticulture Research International]].

===Main campus===

==== Warwick Arts Centre ====
{{main|Warwick Arts Centre}}
The Warwick Arts Centre is a multi-venue arts complex situated at the centre of Warwick's main campus. It attracts around 300,000 visitors a year to over 3,000 individual events spanning contemporary and classical music, drama, dance, comedy, films and visual art.

In addition the site includes the university bookshop, hospitality suites, a restaurant, cafe, shops, and two bars.

====University House====
In 2003 Warwick acquired the former headquarters of [[National Grid plc|National Grid]], which it converted into an administration building renamed University House. There is a student-run facility called the ‘Learning Grid’ in the building, which includes two floors of PC clusters, scanners, photocopiers, a reference library, interactive whiteboards and plasma screens for use by individuals and for group work.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://education.guardian.co.uk/librariesunleashed/story/0,,2275364,00.html|title=Warwick learning grid|access-date=16 November 2011|work=The Guardian|location=London|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101226082758/http://education.guardian.co.uk/librariesunleashed/story/0,,2275364,00.html|archive-date=26 December 2010|url-status=live}}</ref>

====Koan====

The ''White Koan'' is a modern art sculpture by [[Liliane Lijn]] which is installed outside the main entrance to the Warwick Arts Centre.<ref name=Lijn>{{cite web|url=http://www.lilianelijn.com/whi01.html|title=Lilian Lijn, Work|access-date=9 July 2008 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20080423015338/http://www.lilianelijn.com/whi01.html  |archive-date = 23 April 2008}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://warwick.ac.uk/services/art/artist/lilianelijn/wu0133/|title=University of Warwick Art Collection, White Koan|access-date=9 July 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080803212907/http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/services/art/artist/lilianelijn/wu0133/|archive-date=3 August 2008|url-status=live}}</ref> The ''Koan'' is {{convert|6|m|ft}} high,<ref name=Lijn/> white in colour, decorated with elliptical of [[fluorescent light]]s and is rotated by an electric motor whilst illuminated. It is intended to represent the Buddhist quest for questions without answers, the [[Kōan]]. The ''Koan'' was made in 1971 as part of the Peter Stuyvesant Foundation City Sculpture Project and was originally sited in Plymouth; it moved to the [[Hayward Gallery]] in London before being purchased by Warwick in 1972.<ref name=Lijn/> The ''Koan'' was temporarily relocated to the university's Gibbet Hill campus during refurbishments to the Warwick Arts Centre; it was returned upon completion of the project.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.whatsonlive.co.uk/warwickshire/news/warwick-arts-centres-white-koan-goes-on-the-move/38694|title=Warwick Arts Centre's White Koan goes on the move|website=www.whatsonlive.co.uk|access-date=19 April 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190419103128/https://www.whatsonlive.co.uk/warwickshire/news/warwick-arts-centres-white-koan-goes-on-the-move/38694|archive-date=19 April 2019|url-status=live}}</ref> According to student newspaper ''[[The Boar (newspaper)|The Boar]]'', the white Koan has played a role in many of campus' myths and legends – it was allegedly the nose-cap of the Blue-Streak Missile (a failed [[Apollo program|Apollo mission]]), a supposed quick escape route for senior staff, and even a signalling device for aliens in outer space.<ref name="theboar.org">{{cite web |last1=Mitchell |first1=Ellie |title=Koan has returned to Warwick Arts Centre |url=https://theboar.org/2021/12/koan-returned-warwick-arts/ |website=[[The Boar (newspaper)|The Boar]]}}</ref>
The Koan even garnered its very own cartoon strip in the 90s, with 32 episodes created by Steve Shipway.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Steve |first1=Shipway |title=The Incredible Adventures of the Koan of Warwick |url=http://www.steveshipway.org/writings/koan/ |access-date=3 February 2022}}</ref>

===Planned developments===
{{Update section}}
In November 2005, Warwick announced its vision for the year 2020 and outlined proposals for how it would like to develop its campus over the next 15 years.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://warwick.ac.uk/about/campusdevelopment/|title=Campus Development—The Masterplan |publisher=warwick.ac.uk|access-date=19 April 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190102114017/https://warwick.ac.uk/about/campusdevelopment/|archive-date=2 January 2019|url-status=live}}</ref> The proposals built upon recent construction activity including a new Mathematics and Statistics Building, a new Computer Science Building, new Business School buildings, the Digital Laboratory, the new Heronbank Residences and an expanded Sports Centre. The proposals envisage a shift in the "centre of gravity" of the campus away from the Students' Union towards University House and a proposed "Academic Square" located around the new maths and computer science buildings.

Forthcoming projects include an inter-disciplinary biosciences research facility; a £25 million upgrade to Warwick Business School; and the National Automotive Innovation Campus, a new £150 million venture funded by Jaguar Land Rover and the UK government. The NAIC's purpose is to research and develop novel technologies to reduce dependency on fossil fuels and to reduce {{CO2}} emissions. The new {{convert|30000|sqft|m2|abbr=on}} campus will provide research opportunities for postgraduates from 2016 onwards. The campus has been dubbed a ‘brain trust’ and will be used to pioneer the green and high-tech sports and luxury cars of tomorrow, doubling the size of Jaguar's research team.<ref>{{cite news|last=Cooke|first=Daniel|title=£100m investment boost for Warwick University|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/student/news/100m-investment-boost-for-warwick-university-8839352.html|newspaper=The Independent|location=London|access-date=31 October 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180130222917/https://www.independent.co.uk/student/news/100m-investment-boost-for-warwick-university-8839352.html|archive-date=30 January 2018|url-status=live}}</ref>

Later in 2017, the university released its 2030 vision which will see an exponential growth of its main campus in order to remain "world-class" and cope with the growing number of applications it receives each year, especially from non-UK students (41% of the student population).<ref>{{cite web |url=https://warwick.ac.uk/about/strategy/ |title=The University of Warwick Strategy 2018 to 2030 |access-date=21 April 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190102144331/https://warwick.ac.uk/about/strategy |archive-date=2 January 2019 |url-status=live }}</ref> This growth will include a new £33 million Faculty of Arts, a £55 million new sports centre (finished in April 2019), a new £54.3 million Interdisciplinary Biomedical Research Building (IBRB), a new type of student accommodation called "Cryfield village", the expansion of Warwick Manufacturing Group (WMG), a redevelopment for the Art centre and a new Library (scheduled in 5 years time).<ref name="warwick.ac.uk">{{cite web |url=https://warwick.ac.uk/about/campus/developments/ |title=Developments | Our Campus | University of Warwick |access-date=21 April 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170806012228/http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/about/campus/developments |archive-date=6 August 2017 |url-status=live }}</ref> For this occasion, Stuart Croft, vice chancellor of the university declared "New buildings are and will continue to be a part of our everyday existence. We need to open one new academic building a year from now until at least 2023. In order to do this and to keep Warwick as one of the world’s leading universities, we need to do this together, involving the whole community."<ref>{{cite web |url=https://warwick.ac.uk/about/community/campusdevelopments/ |title=Campus developments |access-date=21 April 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180831122308/https://warwick.ac.uk/about/community/campusdevelopments |archive-date=31 August 2018 |url-status=live }}</ref><ref name="warwick.ac.uk"/><ref>{{cite web |url=https://warwick.ac.uk/about/strategy/ |title=The University of Warwick Strategy 2018 to 2030 |access-date=21 April 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190102144331/https://warwick.ac.uk/about/strategy |archive-date=2 January 2019 |url-status=live }}</ref>

===Library===
The main university library is located in the middle of the main campus. It houses approximately 1,265,000 books<ref>{{cite web| url = https://warwick.ac.uk/services/library/main/basics/about/facts/| title = Library Statistics| date = 9 November 2011| work = University of Warwick| publisher = University of Warwick Library| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20120110103836/http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/services/library/basics/about/facts| archive-date = 10 January 2012| url-status = dead| access-date = 10 January 2012 }}</ref> and over 13 km of archives and manuscripts. The main library houses services to support Research and Teaching practice and collaboration between departments. The [[Wolfson Research Exchange]] opened in October 2008 and provides collaboration spaces (both physical and virtual), seminar rooms, conference facilities and study areas for Postgraduate Research students. The Teaching Grid, which opened in 2008, is a flexible space which allows teaching staff to try out new technologies and techniques. Adjacent to the main library building is the [[Modern Records Centre]], a sizeable archive collection, including the UK's largest industrial relations collection.

===Awards===
{{Unreferenced section}}
In 2008 the university launched a new prize, the [[Warwick Prize for Writing]], worth £50,000. It is defined as "an international cross-disciplinary award which will be given biennially for an excellent and substantial piece of writing in the English language, in any genre or form, on a theme that will change with every award". The inaugural winner of the award was [[Naomi Klein]] for her critically acclaimed book ''Shock Doctrine''.

==Research==
In 2013/14 Warwick had a total research income of £90.1 million, of which £33.9 million was from Research Councils; £25.9 million was from central government, local authorities and public corporations; £12.7 million was from the European Union; £7.9 million was from UK industry and commerce; £5.2 million was from UK charitable bodies; £4.0 million was from overseas sources; and £0.5 million was from other sources.<ref name=annacc/>

In the 2014 UK [[Research Excellence Framework]] (REF), Warwick was again ranked 7th overall (as 2008) amongst multi-faculty institutions and was the top-ranked university in the Midlands.<ref name="RAE 2008">{{cite web |url=https://warwick.ac.uk/insite/newsandevents/intnews2/rae_2008_150 |title=RAE 2008 Outstanding Results |publisher=University of Warwick |access-date=16 August 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110714054931/http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/insite/newsandevents/intnews2/rae_2008_150 |archive-date=14 July 2011 |url-status=dead }}</ref> Some 87% of the university's academic staff were rated as being in "world-leading" or "internationally excellent" departments with top research ratings of 4* or 3*.<ref name="RAE 2008"/>

Warwick is particularly strong in the areas of decision sciences research (economics, finance, management, mathematics and statistics). For instance, researchers of the Warwick Business School have won the highest prize of the prestigious European Case Clearing House (ECCH: the equivalent of the Oscars in terms of management research).<ref>{{cite web |last=Bradshaw |first=Della |url=http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/2/07e23e0c-7c57-11e2-99f0-00144feabdc0.html |title=Warwick, Harvard and Insead scoop the academic 'Oscars' |work=Financial Times |access-date=16 August 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150301045204/http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/2/07e23e0c-7c57-11e2-99f0-00144feabdc0.html |archive-date=1 March 2015 |url-status=live }}</ref>

Warwick has established a number of stand-alone units to manage and extract commercial value from its research activities. The four most prominent examples of these units are [[University of Warwick Science Park]]; [[Warwick HRI]]; Warwick Ventures (the technology transfer arm of the university); and [[WMG (formerly Warwick Manufacturing Group)|WMG]].

===Commercial focus===
Warwick has at times received criticism for being too commercially focused, at the expense of academic creativity and diversity. The most famous proponent of this critique was the noted historian [[E.P. Thompson]], who edited and wrote much of ''Warwick University Ltd'' in 1971.<ref>{{cite book| title = Warwick University Limited| author = E. P. Thompson| isbn = 978-0-14-080230-6| publisher = Penguin| year = 1970}}</ref> The book focuses on the brief student occupation of the Registry in 1967, and its causes, the files that were discovered and published, and the subsequent actions of the university, students and staff.

Nevertheless, with the appointment of [[Nick Scheele|Sir Nicholas Scheele]] as Chancellor in 2002, the university signalled that it intended to continue and expand its commercial activities. In an interview for the BBC, Scheele said: "I think in the future, education and industry need to become even more closely linked than they have been historically. As government funding changes, the replacement could well come through private funding from companies, individuals and grant-giving agencies."<ref>{{cite news | url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/2342371.stm | work=BBC News | title=Ford boss: 'Business to fund universities' | date=19 October 2002 | access-date=28 March 2010 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071220174545/http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/2342371.stm | archive-date=20 December 2007 | url-status=live }}</ref>

==Student life==

Undergraduate student life at Warwick can be broadly divided into two phases. In the first year, student life revolves around campus and, in particular, the Students' Union (with its sports clubs, societies, and entertainment facilities). In subsequent years students typically live off-campus, in [[Leamington Spa]], and more rarely in either the Coventry suburbs of [[Earlsdon]] and [[Canley]] or the town of [[Kenilworth]].{{citation needed}} The university has a campus cat named Rolf.<ref name="Campus Cat">

===Students' Union===
{{main|University of Warwick Students' Union}}
The University of Warwick Students' Union is one of the largest [[students' union]]s in the UK, and currently has over 260 societies and 67 sports clubs including basketball, [[University of Warwick Boat Club|rowing]] and ice hockey. The Union has an annual turnover of approximately £6 million, the profit from which is used to provide services to students and to employ its staff and [[sabbatical officer]]s.{{citation needed}}

The Union is divided into two buildings—SUHQ (mainly societies and administration and Restaurant Canopy) and The Union Building (entertainment facilities). The Union Building contains a three-room club venue known as "The Copper Rooms"; CAMRA-accredited "The Dirty Duck" pub; a popular bar called "The Terrace Bar"; Curiositea, a tea shop famous for its hot chocolates, cakes and vintage atmosphere; The Graduate, a postgraduate social and study space; and The Bread Oven, a design-your-own sandwich shop.

After allegations of antisemitism in the [[National Union of Students (United Kingdom)|National Union of Students]], members of the Students' Union voted to disaffiliate with the organisation in 2023. <ref>{{Cite web |title=Warwick Student's Union votes to leave National Union of Students over 'bigotry' |url=https://www.thejc.com/news/news/warwick-students-union-votes-to-leave-national-union-of-students-over-bigotry-4hQDdV1ho883HwZCLf4ZyH |access-date=2023-04-18 |website=www.thejc.com}}</ref>

===Student housing===
[[File:Sherbourne, University of Warwick.jpg|thumb|right|One of the Sherbourne residences]]
The Warwick campus currently has around 6,300 student bedrooms across a range of undergraduate and postgraduate residences. All of the residences are self-catered, and each has residential tutors and a warden.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://warwick.ac.uk/services/accommodation/studentaccommodation/all/campus/|title=Campus Accommodation|access-date=4 February 2012|publisher=University of Warwick|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120213192311/http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/services/accommodation/studentaccommodation/all/campus|archive-date=13 February 2012|url-status=dead}}</ref> Warwick guarantees accommodation for all first-year undergraduate students, regardless of their present address. Many of the university's postgraduate population are also catered for, with some specific residences available for postgraduate living. Each residence accommodates a mixture of students both domestic and foreign, male and female, and, sometimes, undergraduate and postgraduate.

In their second and third years, many students live in one of the surrounding towns: either Coventry, Canley, Kenilworth or Royal Leamington Spa, where they can live in student accommodation or independently owned residences.

Since 2011, Warwick has constructed two new halls of residences for the students. Bluebell, opened in 2011, offers accommodation in flats of 8 people, with a total of 505 single rooms for first-year undergraduates. The Sherbourne residences was opened in 2012, which similarly provides 527 ensuite rooms to first-years,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://warwick.ac.uk/services/accommodation/studentaccommodation/all/campus/residences/sherbourne/|title=Warwick Accommodation|access-date=4 February 2012|publisher=University of Warwick|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120503035726/http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/services/accommodation/studentaccommodation/all/campus/residences/sherbourne|archive-date=3 May 2012|url-status=dead}}</ref> and was extended with a further 267 rooms in 2017.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://warwick.ac.uk/services/estates/developments/sherbourne_extension|title=Sherbourne Extension {{!}} Campus Timeline {{!}} University of Warwick|website=warwick.ac.uk|access-date=27 April 2019}}</ref> A further 700 new rooms were built in the Cryfield Village, namely Cryfield ‘Townhouse’ and ‘Standard’ residences. <ref>{{cite web|url=https://warwick.ac.uk/services/estates/developments/new_cryfield|title=New Residences at Cryfield Village {{!}} Campus Timeline {{!}} University of Warwick|website=warwick.ac.uk|access-date=27 April 2019}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Cryfield Standard Halls of Residence 2023 {{!}} Warwick Accommodation |url=https://warwick.ac.uk/services/accommodation/students/cryfield-standard/ |access-date=2023-04-22 |website=warwick.ac.uk}}</ref>

In early 2018, it was made public that a group of male students had constituted a group chat in which many references to rape, occasionally targeted at particular other students, and other sexual offences were made, in such a way which left significant cause for concern.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-48366835|access-date=25 August 2021|title=Inside the Warwick University rape chat scandal|work=BBC News}}</ref> As a result of this and other incidents, students staged a [[Sit-in]] in 2021 in the central plaza of the university. <ref>{{Cite news |last=Murray |first=Jessica |title=Warwick University students stage sit-in over sexual abuse |language=en-GB |work=The Guardian |url=https://www.theguardian.com/education/2021/apr/02/warwick-university-students-stage-sit-in-over-sexual-abuse |access-date=2023-04-18 |issn=0261-3077}}</ref>
