Summary/Abstract: The words of Messenger of Allah (SAWS): "Scholars are heirs of prophets are fully confirmed in character and work of Jamaludin Afghani. From his early childhood he showed interest for science and philosophy. This was the reason that he became powerful and influential personality that thoroughly examined power - holders and scholars of his time. He used to enter bravely into discussions with authorities and scholars. On the way of truth he was not searing anyone, not even himself, therefore we can say that he laid down his life for this noble cause. Although he was a severe critic of political and religious leaders, in Islamic and non Islamic milieus, he was fully respected and honoured. The noble cause can be achieved only with wise moves and the help of the Lord of worlds. Afghani will be remembered as the brightest torch that appeared in the second half of 19th century and his wise sayings are still fresh and inspiring.
