State Order "Man Of Science Jamāl Al-Dīn Afghānī".

Not much known about this one, but it is fairly high. The working guess is that it was for cultural/religious figures.

Tthis is the Nishan Dauati Alim Sayed Jamal-al-Din Afghani / National Order of the Learned Man Jamal-al-Din Afghani, named after Jamal-al-Din al-Afghani (1838-97) a political activist and Islamic ideologist in the Muslim world during the late 19th century, particularly in the Middle East, South Asia and Europe. He was one of the founders of Islamic modernism and an advocate of pan-Islamic unity. He claimed to be of Afghan origin and while that is factually uncertain, he is embraced by Afghans as a great national hero.
