Was the two nation theory the most important contribution laid by sir syed to the cause of muslims? Do you agree? give reasons for your answer.
Sir Syed Ahmed khan had believed politically that Hindus and Muslims are one nation however he changed his political beliefs to two nation theory after the Hindi Urdu controversy. He asked Muslims not to participate in congress as its only aim was to secure Hindu domination over the Muslims. He was against the new democratic system which the congress was demanding at that time and British were trying to introduce in India as he believed it would have grave implications that the institution of majority (Hindus) would dominate them at every aspect. He was against the belief that appointment in government services should be by competitive examinations as Muslims were not getting education of an advanced character similar to that of Hindus. He urged British to give proper share in representation to the Muslims which were finally accepted in Morley Minto reforms so his political beliefs had a profound impact on Muslims. However his other contributions are also important such as education and reconciliation policy.
The most important contribution was in the field of education as it covers all of the aspects of his services. He opened scientific society and published Aligarh institute gazette to promote modern scientific developments among the Muslims. He also opened mohammadan educational conference in 1886 to solve the various political problems that affected Muslims at large. He also opened various schools such as Gulsion School at Moradabad and Queen Victoria school at ghazipur. He established mohammadan Anglo oriental college which laid down the crops of Muslim intelligentsia so it acted as the nursery of leaders who later helped in the Pakistan movement. He made every effort to make the syllabus of the institutions a great deal of western and Islamic culture. His educational reforms served double purpose. It helped to improve relations with the British and opened doors for the modern education.
Sir Syed also attempted to improve Anglo Muslim relations. The Muslims mistrusted the British as they thought that they had taken their rule from them and hated everything associated with the British. The British mainly considered the Muslims responsible for the war. He tried to remove this misunderstanding by addressing both the British and the Muslims. He wrote two influential pamphlets causes of Indian revolt and the loyal muhammadans of India and asked Muslims that Christians and Christianity could not be hated and Islam does not prohibit them from learning modern sciences and English language. He also found the British Indian association to improve relations
Therefore, it can be concluded that educational reforms were his most important contribution to the cause of Muslims as it helped to improve relations with the British and leads to the self enhancement and self improvement of Muslims and from that came the feeling of self worth. plz check it and give marks on this. thanks in advance.
