Osmanlı Devleti’nin Birinci Dünya Savaşı’na girişinden kısa bir süre sonra Almanya’nın da isteği doğrultusunda Sultan-Halife tarafından “cihat-ı ekber” ilan edildi. Bu, başta İngiltere olmak üzere İtilaf Devletlerini, sömürgelerinde vurma ve İslam dünyasını düşmanlarına karşı ayaklandırma planları yapan Almanya için tarihi bir fırsattı. Cihat fikrini bir politika ve propaganda malzemesi yapan Almanya, İslam fanatizmini özendirmek, Müslümanların hiddetini düşmanlarının üzerine salmak için birtakım projeler yapıyordu. Söz konusu plan ve propagandalar çerçevesinde başta Afganistan, Hindistan ve Mısır olmak üzere tüm İslam dünyasında eyleme geçildi. Planın bir parçası da Kafkasya’ydı ve Kafkasya’nın ayaklandırılması “şâyan-ı temenni” idi. Almanya Kafkas halklarını Rusya’ya karşı ayaklandırmak için her fırsatı değerlendiriyordu. Bu tarihi fırsatlardan biri de Azerbaycan’da kurulmuş olan Difâî teşkilatının üyesi olduğunu iddia eden “Genceli Emir Aslan Han Hoyski”ydi. 1914 yılı sonlarına doğru sınırı geçen Emir Aslan Doğu Kafkasya’da ihtilal ateşini yakacağını söylüyor, büyük bir ayaklanmanın hazırlığı içinde olduğunu belirtiyordu. Bu plan doğrultusunda Osmanlı Devleti’ne ittifak teklif ediyor ve Almanya’nın Erzurum Konsolosu’na da birtakım vaatlerde bulunuyordu.
Shortly after the Ottoman State entered the First World War, the Sultan-Halife, according to the German desire, declared it a "cihat-i ekber". This was a historic opportunity for Germany, which planned to attack the opposition states, primarily Britain, in their colonies, and rebellion the Islamic world against its enemies. Germany, which made the jihadist idea a political and propaganda material, was making a series of projects to encourage Islamic fanatism, to release the violence of Muslims on their enemies. In the framework of this plan and propaganda, action was initially carried out in the entire Islamic world, including Afghanistan, India and Egypt. Part of the plan was also the Caucasus, and the rebellion of the Caucasus was the “shayan-i temenni”. Germany was considering every opportunity to rebell the people of the Caucasus against Russia. One of these historic opportunities was the "Young Emir Lion Han Hoyski" who claimed to be a member of the Divine Organization founded in Azerbaijan. The Emir Aslan, who crossed the border to the end of 1914, said he would burn the contrary fire in the eastern Caucasus, and said he was preparing for a major rebellion. In accordance with this plan, he offered alliance to the Ottoman State and made a number of promises to the Erzurum Console of Germany.

Germany which made the idea of Jihad become a tool of politics and propaganda was in the process of preparations for plans so as to encourage Islamic fanaticism and direct Muslims’ rage upon enemies. Within the context of the aforementioned plans and propagandas, all the Islamic world went into action including Afghanistan, India and Egypt. Caucasia was a part of the plan and causing a revolt in Caucasia was a ‘worthy desire’. In order to cause a revolt in Caucasian publics against Russia, Germany was making use of every opportunity. One of those historical opportunities was ‘Genceli Emir Aslan Han Hoyski’ who claimed to have been a member of the organization called Dîfai established in Azerbaijan. Emir Aslan who passed the border towards the end of 1914, said that he was going to start the revolution fire in the Eastern Caucasia and mentioned that he was in preparation for a great revolt.
