This volume examines Sayyid Ahmad Khan's life, his contribution,
and legacy in the context of current times. The editors engage his
writings, ideas, and activities to read and present his work
critically, not as a biographical account of his life but approach
his work keeping in mind the tumultuous political events and
changes of the nineteenth century, after the failed revolt of 1857
when Indians were transformed into colonial subjects. The
collective anxieties of the Indian communities, particularly the
Muslims, cried out for a new local leadership; Sayyid Ahmad Khan
rose up to this occasion etching the way forward for Indians, in
general, and Muslims in particular. Sayyid Ahmad Khan's
multifaceted work offers an important understanding for national
thinking emerging from the location of the Muslim, but it is not a
'minority' voice with vested political interests rather a
constructive and integrative voice of relevance even today for
addressing difficult problems.
