Timothy John Winter (born 15 May 1960), also known as Abdal Hakim Murad, is an English academic, theologian and Islamic scholar[5][6] who is a proponent of Islamic neo-traditionalism. His work includes publications on Islamic theology, modernity, and Anglo-Muslim relations,[7][8] and he has translated several Islamic texts.

He is the Founder and Dean of the Cambridge Muslim College,[9] Aziz Foundation Professor of Islamic Studies at both Cambridge Muslim College and Ebrahim College,[10] Director of Studies (Theology and Religious Studies) at Wolfson College[11][12] and the Shaykh Zayed Lecturer of Islamic Studies in the Faculty of Divinity at University of Cambridge.[13][14][15]

In 2008 he started the Cambridge Mosque Project which raised money for the construction of a purpose-built mosque. The Cambridge Central Mosque opened on 24 April 2019 as the first purpose-built Mosque in Cambridge, and the first eco-mosque in Europe.
