Stanowisko

Al-Afghani wanted to rouse the Muslim world against European, above all British, domination. Muslims, he argued, had declined not because of Islam but because they had neglected reason and science; they must unite and renew their religion from within. In India he wrote The Refutation of the Materialists against the “naturalists” around Sayyid Ahmad Khan, whom he accused of serving the British. Yet in his 1883 reply to Ernest Renan he conceded that all religions, Islam included, had hindered science, and hoped Islam might undergo a reform like Christianity’s. Scholars still debate his sincerity and consistency. Through Abduh and Rashid Rida he shaped both Islamic modernism and later political Islam.

Życie i kontekst

Sayyid Jamal al-Din, called al-Afghani, was born in 1838 or 1839. His origin is disputed: he himself claimed birth in Afghanistan, but much evidence points to Asadabad near Hamadan in Iran and a Shia upbringing. He was active in Afghanistan, Istanbul, Egypt (1871–1879, where Muhammad Abduh became his pupil), India, Paris, London, Russia and Iran, and was expelled from several countries. He died in Istanbul in 1897.
