In the history of Indian freedom struggle and educational reform, The Aligarh Movement of mid nineteenth century played a crucial role. It changed and shaped significantly the track of India’s socio-cultural and socio-political system and movement. Its founder was Sir Syed Sir Ahmed Khan. He was one of India's most influential Muslim reformers. In the light of modern rationalism and science, he interpreted the Quran. His greatest accomplishment in 1875 was the establishment at Aligarh of the Mohammedan Anglo Oriental College. With the help of some Hindu and Muslim leaders, he formed the Indian Patriotic Association in opposition to the Congress and he tried to disincentive the Muslims from joining the convention. He stressedthe harmony between Muslims and Hindus. One of India's biggest Muslim reformers was Sir Syed Ahmed Khan. He went on to combat fancy, illogical opinions, orthodoxies, racism, narrow mindedness and bigotry and concentrated on freedom of thought. Syed Ahmad Khan has been adapted and prioritized to the imperatives of his time. His approach to the education of women was close to that of the Indian Education Commission in 1882. The latter's long-standing effects have been maintained by knowledge on schooling, labor engagement and social mobility, considering the phenomenal changes since then. Neither the college nor its founder lived alone with other events in colonial India. Syed Ahmad reacted to his goals, and his pulses were then sought answers by contemporary revolutionaries of British India. His philosophies and ideas would be read meaningfully and ardently by later generations irrespective of caste and religion to shapesocio-political opinion, this excellent intellectual man has been read even today with great interest and relevance. In this work, library tools including primary and secondary sources have been used in large sections. This essay will objectively address Syed Ahmad Khan's copacetic contributions, the implications and goals of the Aligarh Movement
