Agitation And Misrepresentation In The British Press

Agitation and misrepresentation in the British Press Nasir-ud-Din Shah continued to press his complaints to the British, noting the propaganda and violent language of Afghani’ speeches and Articles. Iran requested the British to extradite Jamaluddin to Iran, but the British did not agree on legal ground, however, they stopped the publication of Afghanis newspaper “Diya al-Khafiqain” the light of the two hemispheres. Meanwhile Sultan wanted to attract Afghani back to Istanbul, and invited him, via Ottoman Ambassador in London Rustam Pasha. This invitation was refused by Afghani, because of his mistrust o Sultan. Sultan then had his chief religious confident Abu-Al-Huda “As Sayyadi” who wrote, two letters, to Afghani and invited him to come to Istanbul as a guest of Khalif. Jamaluddin though not trusting Abu al-Huda more than he did Khalif, but never the less, he accepted their invitation, mainly with the hope of implementing, his idea of “Pan-Islamism” in the interest o Moslem countries.
