Mohammed Ali Jauhar



A fiery
orator, a forceful writer and fearless freedom fighter, Maulana
Mohammed Ali Jauhar was credited with having the heart of Napoleon, the
pen of McCauley and the tongue of Burke.

For nearly two decades he
strode the Indian political scene like a Colossus and had the unique
distinction of having directed the affairs of the three most important
political parties in the country -The Indian National Congress, the All
India Muslim League and the Khilafat Movement.

A devout Muslim and a
staunch patriot, he fought both for India and for Islam. He gave his
life for India and found a permanent resting place in a Muslim
sanctuary.
