Tim Winter (Sheikh Abdul-Hakim Murad) - described as Britain's, and one of the world's, most significant and influential Muslims - is Shaykh Zayed Lecturer in Islamic Studies at Cambridge University.

He will be speaking, and taking questions, on

                'The Implications of British Muslim Demographic Growth'.

He is at the forefront of the move to build a new mosque on Mill Road, Cambridge.

The son of an architect and an artist, he attended Westminster School, graduating from Cambridge University with a double first in Arabic. He studied and taught traditional Islamic sciences at the University of al-Azhar in Egypt and then worked in Jeddah administering a commercial translation office before moving in the late 80s to London University's School of Oriental and African Studies to concentrate on Turkish and Persian.

Conversant in both traditional Islamic scholarship and Western thought and civilization, Tim's profile and work on many Islamic topics have attracted media coverage both in the Muslim World and the West. He has often contributed to Al-Jazeera broadcasts and is a regular speaker on Thought for the Day on Radio 4's Today programme.

Tim has written extensively on the origins of suicidal terrorism.

His academic publications include many articles on Islamic theology and Muslim-Christian relations, two books in Turkish on political theology and occasional book reviews in Times Literary Supplement. He is Editor, Cambridge Companion to Classical Islamic Theology, and author of Bombing without Moonlight, awarded the King Abdullah I Prize for Islamic Thought. He was Executive Producer of The Alchemist of Happiness, a film which has won several prizes.

Tim's younger brother, Henry Winter, is football correspondent of the Daily Telegraph.
