  <abstract>This is the first complete English translation of the autobiography of Abdul Ghaffar Khan, widely known as the "Frontier Gandhi" or "Bacha Khan." The book recounts his lifelong commitment to non-violence, social reform, and the struggle against British colonial rule. It traces the formation and activities of the Khudai Khidmatgar (Servants of God) movement, his close association with Mahatma Gandhi, opposition to the Partition of India, repeated imprisonment, and his vision of communal harmony, justice, and democratic values. The autobiography provides a first-hand account of one of the most influential leaders of the Indian freedom movement from the North-West Frontier Province.</abstract>
