He is a Director of Studies at Wolfson College, and is a holder of the Pilkington Teaching Prize at the University of Cambridge. He’s been described as Britain's most influential Muslim thinker by The Independent. In 2006 he published Abraham's Children, co-edited with Bishop Richard Harries and Rabbi Norman Solomon. He is the editor of the Cambridge Companion to Classical Islamic Theology (2008). His most recent book is Commentary on the Eleventh Contentions (2012). Dr. Tim Winter’s articles have appeared in The Independent, the London Evening Standard, the Daily Telegraph, The Times, the Catholic Herald, Neue Zürcher Zeitung, and Prospect. He is also a regular contributor to BBC Radio 4's ‘Thought for the Day’. As a Muslim myself, I’ve often been troubled by the predominately negative media coverage associated with Muslims around the world, as well Muslims in my home country, the UK. I reached out to Dr. Winter because he is a man of profound knowledge and someone I believe is capable of addressing and answering my questions. We discuss, among other things, the importance of training British born Imams to address the “ideological emergency” that British Muslims face today; the internet as a “very poor replacement” for seeking authentic knowledge; and the roots and causes of extremism as well as the reasons behind the rise of the far-right.
