My guest this week is Manwar Ali - a former radical Jihadist who is now a leading campaigner in Britain against violence and extremism, and works with the UK police and Home Office to prevent radicalisation in young people.

Whilst studying in London in the late 1970’s, Manwar gradually became radicalised and was involved in radical Jihad for 15 years, recruiting others, fundraising and fighting for the cause. He is now one of the only scholars in the UK who has been directly involved in violent jihad and he draws on these experiences to address issues of extremism through education, social projects, charitable events and open discussion .

Manwar and his wife came to my house for this conversation and it was very emotional for both Manwar and I. There's something really powerful about owning your mistakes and going through such a huge transition. Manwar is sincere and I truly believe anyone listening to this will understand what happened to him and the decisions he made. Manwar continues to teach Islam and now encourages anyone drawn to violence to let go of anger and hatred and instead see the beauty, goodness and truth in others. I hope you enjoy this eye opening and educational episode.
