In 1986 I was stationed in Rabwah as Vakilud Diwan in Tehriki Jadid Offices. I was well settled there and had constructed a comfortable four bedroom house in a prestigious locality of Rabwah for myself and my children. In the end of March of that Year, on the insistence of a few friends I decided to write Memoirs of my long companionship with Hazrat Chaudhri Muhammad Zafrullah Khan Sahib. I had developed close relationship with him since 1959 when I arrived in England as the Deputy Imam of the London Mosque.
It was my great fortune to play host to this great scion of Ahmadiyyat and a world leader from 1972 to 1979 when he retired from the International Court of Justice and settled in a top flat at the UK Mission House. I was then the Imam of the London Mosque and Missionary In charge of UK Ahmadiyya Muslim Mission. He occupied the top flat of the Mission House while I had the middle flat as my residence. My wife and children looked after him as he had no family members living with him in London.
In the end of 1979 I was recalled to the International Headquarters of the Ahmadiyya Movement at Rabwah. Read More...

In 1953 I was a fourth year student at T.I. College Lahore. From the beginning of 1953 the Anti Ahmadiyya Ulemas (Clerics) had started a movement in Punjab to force the Government to declare Ahmadis as a non Muslim Minority in Pakistan. Majlis Ahrar was at the fore front of this Movement. They had some fire brand Orators who were trying to stir the emotions of the general Muslim population against us. Unfortunately the Punjab Government headed by Mian Mumtaz Daulatana was in league with them secretly and was funding them. They were given a free hand and all facilities were provided to them. Large amounts of funds were secretly given to some of the newspapers in Lahore to give full backing and publicity to them. Read More...

Let us look back into the past hundered years history of Ahmadyyat and the opposition of the anti Ahmadiyya maulvis and see on whose side was the hand of God working. We all know that from the very inception of Ahmadiyyat these biggoted maulvis have been trying their best to disrupt the onward march of the Ahmadiyya Movement but they met with utter failure and the march of Ahmadiyyat went forward from strength to strength. Every year hundreds of thousands of new converts join the movement all over the world. The seed of Ahmadiyyat has so far been planted in more than one hundered and fifty countries of the world. Thousands of new mosques are being built by the Jamaat in various countries of the world. Dozens of new Missionary colleges have been opened in Africa, Europe, Canada and Indonesia. Thousands of parents are devoting their new borns for the service of Islam and Ahmadiyyat. Hundreds of new books and magazines are being published all over the world by the Jamaat. Millions of needy and poor people are being helped by HUMANITY FIRST, a social welfare wing of the Jamaat. This help is given to all, irrespective of their religion, race or colour. The Ahmadiyya Jamaat has opened dozens of hospitals, hundereds of schools and thousands of free Homeopathic clinincs all over the world. Read More...

In June 1948, I was ordered to report to the Commandant of the Furqan Force at Jhelum. I went to my village to get permission from my parents. I told my father that I had volunteered to fight the Indian Army on the Kashmir Front. My father was very happy that I had responded to the call of Hazrat Khalifatul Masih but my mother was greatly worried and sad. I was her eldest son and was very young. She became very emotional and wept when I bade her farewell. My father accompanied me to the nearest Railway Station to see me off. Read More...

In 1970 while I was with Hazrat Khalifatul Masih III as his Private Secretary we had picnics at various resorts. Once Hazrat M.M.Ahmad suggested that Huzoor should spend a few days at Ghora Gali Forest Rest House near Murree. He said he would reserve the Guest House whenever Huzoor wanted to go there.

Ghora Gali is situated 34 miles from Pindi, at a height of 5,000 feet. In olden days when horse drawn vehicles used to operate between Rawalpindi and Murree the horses would be changed here, hence the name Ghora, meaning horse. The Forest Rest House is situated in the midst of picturesque surroundings. The views of lush green hill from the Rest House are stunning. The Rest House is quite spacious with servant quarters and is in a secluded area. During the summer months when the mercury shoots up to 110 degrees in the plains the cool and refreshing air of Ghora Gali breaths a new life in one's veins. Read More...

The organisation of Lajna Imaullah was set up in London in the early fifties. The first President was Mrs. Naseem. She was the wife of Dr. Muhammad Naseem of Allahabad, India. Dr. Naseem was a retired Judge of Allahabad High Court. Mrs Naseem was very close to Begum Ikramullah,the wife of the then High Commissioner of Pakistan. Begum Ikramullah was the niece of Husain Shaheed Suhurwardi, who had served as the Prime Minister of Pakistan. Begum Ikramullah attended Lajna meetings at the mosque on many occasions.

Mrs Chaudhri Muhammad Ashraf took over from Mrs. Nasim, for a brief period, as Sadr Lajna London.In those early days Lajna was a very small organisation of a handful of ladies, but this was soon to change.
