Timeline

1960

Timothy John Winter (born 15 May 1960), also known as Abdal Hakim Murad, is an English academic, theologian and Islamic scholar who is a proponent of Islamic neo-traditionalism.

His work includes publications on Islamic theology, modernity, and Anglo-Muslim relations, and he has translated several Islamic texts.

He is the Founder and Dean of the Cambridge Muslim College, Aziz Foundation Professor of Islamic Studies at both Cambridge Muslim College and Ebrahim College, Director of Studies (Theology and Religious Studies) at Wolfson College and the Shaykh Zayed Lecturer of Islamic Studies in the Faculty of Divinity at University of Cambridge.

1979

He became Muslim in 1979.

1983

He was educated at Westminster School and graduated with a double-first in Arabic from Pembroke College, Cambridge, in 1983.

He then went on to study at Al Azhar University in Cairo but did not graduate with any formal qualification.

He also engages in private study with individual scholars in Saudi Arabia and Yemen.

After returning to England, he studied Turkish and Persian at the University of London.

2003

In 2003, he was awarded the Pilkington Teaching Prize by Cambridge University and in 2007 he was awarded the King Abdullah I Prize for Islamic Thought for his short booklet Bombing Without Moonlight.

2008

In 2008 he started the Cambridge Mosque Project which raised money for the construction of a purpose-built mosque.

He is also the editor of the Cambridge Companion to Classical Islamic Theology (2008) and author of Bombing without Moonlight, which in 2007 was awarded the King Abdullah I Prize for Islamic Thought.

Murad is also a contributor to BBC Radio 4's Thought for the Day.

Additionally, Murad is one of the signatories of A Common Word Between Us and You, an open letter by Islamic scholars to Christian leaders, calling for peace and understanding.

Murad is the founder and leader of the Cambridge Central Mosque project which has developed a new purpose built mosque in Cambridge to cater for up to 1,000 worshipers.

The mosque is an "eco-mosque" with substantial reliance on green energy and an almost-zero carbon footprint.

Regarding the project, Murad stated, "This will be a very substantial world class landmark building in what is considered by some to be a down-at-heel part of Cambridge."

Murad has criticized the term "Islamophobia" for its implication that hostility to Islam and Muslims is based on race or tribalistic fear rather than enmity against their religion itself.

Nonetheless, he has decried the rising hostility to Islam in Europe, and suggested that it is fueled by the loss of faith and tradition within Europe itself, which he says results in Europeans formulating their identity by contrasting themselves with a Muslim Other.

Murad is a traditionalist and considers the views of extremists like al-Qaeda as religiously illegitimate and inauthentic.

He decries the failure of extremists to adhere to the classical canons of Islamic law and theology and denounces their fatwas.

He unequivocally rejects suicide bombing and considers the killing of noncombatants as always forbidden, noting that some sources consider it worse than murder.

According to Murad, Osama bin Laden and his right-hand man Ayman al-Zawahiri were un-Islamic, unqualified vigilantes who violate basic Islamic teachings.

Murad is critical of Western foreign policy for fueling anger and resentment in the Muslim world.

He is equally critical of Saudi Arabia's Wahhabi ideology, which he believes gives extremists a theological pretext for their extremism and violence.

Winter has expressed agreement with Julius Evola´s views on modernity, although he disagrees with his racist views.

Murad's younger brother is football writer Henry Winter.

2009

In 2009 Murad helped to open the Cambridge Muslim College, an institute designed to train British imams.

Murad also directs the Anglo-Muslim Fellowship for Eastern Europe, and the Sunna Project which has published the foremost scholarly Arabic editions of the major Sunni Hadith collections.

He serves as the secretary of the Muslim Academic Trust.

Murad is active in translating key Islamic texts into English including a translation of two volumes of the Islamic scholar al-Ghazali's Ihya Ulum al-Din.

His academic publications include many articles on Islamic theology and Muslim-Christian relations as well as two books in Turkish on political theology.

His book reviews sometimes appear in the Times Literary Supplement.

2012

He has consistently been included in The 500 Most Influential Muslims list published annually by the Royal Aal al-Bayt Institute for Islamic Thought and was ranked in 2012 as the 50th most influential.

2015

In January 2015, Winter was nominated for the Services to Education award at the British Muslim Awards.

Most recently in the 2022 Edition of The 500 Most Influential Muslims, Winter was ranked the 45th most influential Muslim in the world.
