Jamal al-Din al-Afghani spent his life on the move: Kabul, India, Cairo, Paris, Tehran, Istanbul. Wherever he went he lectured, wrote, and made rulers nervous by arguing that Muslims should unite, modernise and stand up to European control. Even his birthplace is disputed, and he may have used the name “Afghani” for strategic reasons. This book sorts out what we know about the man, what he actually taught, and why movements from reformers to revolutionaries claim him as an ancestor.
Every claim gets a Source Check: solid, likely, disputed or legend.
