SIR SYED AHMED KHAN'S EDUCATIONAL ENDEAVOURS – A REVISIT

Sir Syed Ahmad Khan devoted his life to spread education among Muslims. When the
British introduced modern education in India, the Muslims looked upon it with
suspicion for they feared that the English language would weaken their faith. On the
other hand the Hindus who wholeheartedly embraced it progressed in all walks of
life. This opened the eyes of the Muslim intelligentsia of the time, chief among whom
was Sir Syed Ahmed Khan. He felt that English education was the only panacea for
the regeneration of Muslims. A great milestone in this direction was the foundation
of the Aligarh Scientific Society. The system of education, which Sir Syed advocated
was the modern European education without compromising with religious values. It
was in fact a rapprochement between science and religion
affective response as a result of his/ her estimation of the degree to which some fact
of job reality is congruent or incongruent with his/ her values. Job satisfaction to
constitute an attitudinal variable that measure how to person feels about his job
including different facets of the job.
