Education is important for Muslims and non Muslims. Per Islam teachings, educated Muslims are more rewarded than uneducated.
After the War of Independence in 1857, sir Syed started working to bridge the gap between Muslims and British but he was accused of being pro-British. This perception was due to some reasons. When the war of 1857 had broke out, sir Syed was working as a chief judge in Bijnaur. He saved the lives of many British women and children. This made the Muslims unhappy and they labeled him as a traitor. Another thing which may have become the reason was that he advocated scientific ideas and western education. In his Urdu journal Tahdbib-ul-Akhlaq he asked Muslims to gain scientific knowledge and western education whereas the Muslims at that time considered scientific education as un-Islamic. Thirdly he advocated English as the medium of education and that Muslims could only get their right when they will know how to speak English. Also to counter the Hindus, they would have to know how to speak English. These reasons may well support that why was Sir Syed Ahmad accused of being pro-British.
the aligarh movement was founded by sir syed ahmed khan. Sir syed wanted to see the muslims prosper and be united as well as to see an improvement in their social and ecomomic positions. This was the aim of the aligarh movement as well as to increase political awareness of the muslim community and also to improve the relations between muslims and the british.
Western education in India basically started when the British came. Indians did not agree with this. But soon because of Sir Syed Ahmad khan, they did.
He found the Aligarh movement to improve the relations between British and Muslim ,to increase political awareness among Muslim and to encourage the growth of western education.

Sir Syed message to Muslims was to gwet western education and to improve their relations 1. Sir Syed advised the Muslims against joining active politics and to concentrate instead on education. Later, when some Muslims joined the Indian National Congress, he came out strongly against that organization and its objectives, which included the establishment of parliamentary democracy in India. He argued that, in a country where communal divisions were all-important and education and political organizations were confined to a few classes, parliamentary democracy would work only inequitably.
