If Professor Irfan Habib Sahab does not understand Sir Syed it is understandable.
Former has chosen Marxism over Islam as a way of life.
If Subhasini Ali does not understand Sir Syed it is understandable.
Because she also has chosen Marxism as a way of life.
Occasionally both of them say things that happen to be in kind vain for the followers of Islam.
But what is the price to be for that?
It is a matter of fact statement that if you want to give the same education to girls that you are giving to boys then similar facilities should be given.
The real or imaginary discrimination in terms of books available to girls have given people the ammunition to take a pot shot on AMU regarding gender injustice.
When the same thing happened last time Abdul Hafiz Gandhi went to the citadel of the residual Marxism, JNU, and held a press conference there.
But may be some home work should have been done here also.
To explain Sir Syed to the progressive, liberal and modern elements in house.
Sir Syed wanted crown of no god but God on heads.
The detractors might not agree with that but that is the reality.
When communism collapsed somebody said that the last communist will be a Mukherjee or a Chaterjee because of the people of West Bengal showing unusual attachment to that ideology.
Both West Begal and China have made smooth transition to non-Marxist life style.
Not some of the people affecting things Aligarian.
The reason is rather trivial-the inheritors of Sir Syed seem to be an easy target.
As a food for thought we leave the fans of the socialist newspaper The Hindu with the posts at this blog about its obsession with a country to the north of India. The blogger there has since expired but the conclusion still holds that a significant chunk of intellectual class has left that readership of that newspaper.
