Writes the Viceroy: "I may do what I like it, including sending a copy to you; thirdly, the copies have been passed to Jinnah and I think to Hydari (Sir Akbar Hydari, then Prime Minister of the Nizam of Hyderabad), and, fourthly, while he, Zafrullah, cannot of course admit its authorship, his document has been prepared for adoption by the Muslim League with a view to be given the fullest publicity."
The Viceroy explains that although the scheme had been drawn up at his instance, since Zafrullah was Qadiani, the Muslims' knowing that it was his handiwork would make it suspect in their eyes from the very start. Consider the dates. This letter was written on April 12, 1940. The plan had been sent earlier. A copy of it had also gone to Mr. Jinnah, and also to Sir Hydari (for the financing of it). Obviously it was much the same scheme that was adopted as the Pakistan Resolution just at that time, on March 23, 1940.
As an active Ahmadi-Muslim he was the Amir of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community in Lahore during the period 1919 to 1935. He served as Secretary to Khalifat-ul Masih II, the second successor of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad at the occasion of Shura (Advisory Council) for the first time in 1924 and did so on a further seventeen occasions. In addition, he was a member of the delegation which represented the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community at the All Parties Conference held in 1924. In 1927, he acted successfully as representative counsel for the Muslims of the Punjab in the contempt of court case against the 'Muslim Outlook'.
He was elected a member of the Punjab Legislative Council in 1926 and presided at the Delhi Meeting of the All India Muslim League in 1931, where he advocated the cause of the Indian Muslims through his presidential address. He participated in the Round Table Conferences held in the years 1930, 1931, and 1932, and he was member of the Executive Council of the Viceroy of India during the years 1935 to 1941. He became the Minister of Railways in May, 1935. In 1939, he represented India in the League of Nations. He was appointed the Agent General of India in China in the year 1942 and represented India as the Indian Government's nominee in the Commonwealth Relations Conference in 1945, where courageously spoke for the cause of India's freedom. Thereafter, he was appointed Judge of the Federal Court of India in September 1941, which he held until June 1947. At the request of Mr. Muhammad Ali Jinnah, known by the title Quaid-e-Azam (Pakistan's founding father and first leader), he represented the Muslim League in July 1947 before the Radcliffe Boundary Commission and presented the case of the Muslims in a highly commendable manner. In October 1947, Zafrullah Khan represented Pakistan in United Nations General Assembly as the head of the Pakistan delegation and advocated the stand of the Muslim world on the Palestinian issue. That year, he was appointed as Pakistan's (first) Foreign Minister, a post he held for 7 years. In 1948 to 1954 he represented Pakistan at the Security Council (UN) and admirably advocated the case of liberation of the occupied Kashmir, Libya, Northern Ireland, Eritrea, Somalia, Sudan, Tunisia, Morocco, and Indonesia. In 1954 he became Judge of the International Court of Justice in The Hague, which he held until 1961. He became the Vice President of the International Court of Justice, the Hague, in 1958 and remained so until 1961. Then between 1961 to 1964, he was Pakistan's Permanent Representative at the UN, and in 1962 for 2 years was President of the UN General Assembly. In March, 1958, he performed Umra and visited the shrine of Prophet Muhammad in Medina, Saudi Arabia. He also met Sultan Abdul Aziz Ibne Saud and stayed in the Royal Palace as the King's personal guest. He performed Hajj in the year 1967 and produced a new English translation of the Holy Qur'an in 1970. The same year, he was elected President of the International Court of Justice, The Hague, a post he held until 1973. He lived in England for the period 1973 to 1983 and went back to Lahore, Pakistan in 1983 and died on September 1, 1985, after a protracted illness. He was buried in the city of Rabwah which was the world headquarters of the worldwide Ahmadiyya Muslim Community at that time with the current world headquarters being London, England.
Zafrullah Khan advised the Nawab of Junagadh that should he make the decision to join his state with Pakistan it would be both moral and legal. Nawab then proceeded to announce this decision. http://www.ummat.com.pk/Report.ummat.com.pk/26102007-Misc_Reports/InterweuSaifUllahKhalid-26102007.html
"Apostasy means a plain and clear repudiation of Islam of a professing Muslim …. Simple apostasy, which is not aggravated by rebellion, treason or grave disorderliness, is not punishable in any manner in this life…."

Tambahan Keterangan dari Hadhrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad, Khalifatul Masih, Imam Jemaat AHmadiyah se-dunia mengenai sejarah Pakistan pada tanggal 23 Maret 2012 beliau menyampaikan khotbah Jum’at:
“Hari ini saya dengan kehati-hatian ingin menyampaikan mengenai Pakistan untuk dijadikan sebagai catatan. Tanggal 23 Maret di Pakistan juga sedang dirayakan sebagai Hari Pakistan. Sehubungan dengan itu saya anjurkan kepada Ahmadi Pakistani untuk memanjatkan doa-doa bagi Negara Pakistan yang sedang melewati keadaan yang sangat kritis dan berbahaya sekali. Semoga Allah Ta’ala menyelamatkan Negara itu, demi anggota Jemaat Ahmadiyah semoga Allah Ta’ala menyelamatkan mereka. Sebab, orang-orang Ahmadi banyak memanjatkan doa demi keselamatan negara itu. Saya ingin mengemukakan beberapa bukti sampai dimana orang-orang Ahmadi berusaha terus-menerus demi terbentuknya Negara Pakistan?
Pada tahun 1923 sebuah Surat Kabar ‘Daor-e-Jadid’ telah menulis mengenai Hadhrat Choudhri Zafrullah Khan Sahib: “Semua Muslim di seluruh Provinsi Punjab, dewan yang dianggap berhak mewakili seluruh Punjab ketika merasa perlu bahwa seorang wakil atas nama orang-orang Muslim harus dikirim ke Inggris maka mereka menganggap Hadhrat Choudhri Zafrullah Khan Sahib sesuai betul untuk diutus ke sana. Alhasil Choudhri Zafrullah Khan Sahib pergi ke Britania dengan biaya sendiri dan mengemukakan permasalahan secara langsung dan sangat indah sekali di hadapan penguasa dan para ahli politik Britania yang sesudahnya bukan hanya dipuji oleh Punjab Council (Dewan Punjab) bahkan Pemerintah juga sangat terkesan…”
Itulah peristiwa dan bukti yang sangat gemilang yang sekurang-kurangnya satupun dari persatuan Surat Kabar manapun didunia tidak dapat mengingkarinya.
jazakumullah tn. tmbahan infrmasi pnting mngenai beliau :)
