Statement (1) and (4) are correct. Statement (2) is incorrect as initially Sir Syed Ahmad Khan’s philosophy was very similar to that of the Indian National Congress but later on he went against Congress. He supported the British during the 1857 revolution. He thought that Congress was mainly a Hindu body which worked for the protection of the rights of the Hindus. Sir Syed Ahmed khan was an Indian Muslim pragmatist, Islamic reformist, philosopher of nineteenth century British India. In 1875, he founded the Muhammadan Anglo-Oriental College, the first Muslim university in South Asia.
