Rashad Ali is a counter-extremism consultant and former senior member of Hizb ut-Tahrir.[1]

Ali joined Hizb ut-Tahrir at 15.[2]

He studied at Markfield Institute and al-Azhar University, Cairo.[3]

Rashid Ali was an early staff member at the Quilliam Foundation, serving as its curriculum manager in 2008.[4]

Since January 2009, he has worked at the counter-terrorist consultancy CENTRI.[3]

In May 2015, the Telegraphs Andrew Gilligan described Ali as a leading figure in the Home Office’s Channel deradicalisation programme. This description came in the context of criticism of Theresa May's Extresmism Bill, of which Ali commented; '“The Government is obsessed with legislation but this is not something you can defeat by legislation. It is a battle of ideas and we have to defeat these ideas by argument, not by banning even having the debate.”[5]
