Aziz Foundation

The Aziz Foun­da­tion is a Lon­don-based grant-mak­ing body and schol­ar­ship orga­ni­za­tion led by prop­er­ty investor Asif Haroon Aziz, sup­port­ing British Mus­lim stu­dents and ini­tia­tives. For­mer lead­er­ship includes indi­vid­u­als linked to the Mus­lim Coun­cil of Britain (MCB), Euro­pean Net­work Against Racism (ENAR), and Mus­lim Engage­ment and Devel­op­ment (MEND)—each asso­ci­at­ed with Glob­al Mus­lim Broth­er­hood (GMB) net­works in vary­ing degrees. Tim­o­thy Win­ter (Sheikh Abdal-Hakim Murad) has been involved in the Foun­da­tion and has par­tic­i­pat­ed in efforts to revive the GMB-affil­i­at­ed Inter­na­tion­al Islam­ic Fed­er­a­tion of Stu­dent Orga­ni­za­tions (IIFSO). The Foun­da­tion has pro­vid­ed fund­ing for the All-Par­ty Par­lia­men­tary Group on British Mus­lims (APPGBM), which works close­ly with the MCB and pro­motes a con­test­ed def­i­n­i­tion of Islamophobia.
