My Mother — Page xiii
Foreword to the First Edition died on May 16, 1938. By the end of the year I pub- lished her brief biographical sketch in Urdu, with a foreword by the late Sahibzada Mirza Bashir Ahmad Sahib, in which he wrote: By setting out within a small compass the attractive and moving events of his mother’s life in this booklet, Chaudhri Muhammad Zafrulla Khan has, not only per- formed in an excellent manner the duty owed by a son to his mother, but has also rendered valuable service to the Movement. Such literature can, by Allah’s grace, prove very helpful in fostering the moral and spiritual standards of the Community. I trust, therefore, that our friends will all read this booklet and will urge the members of their families to read it also, so that all of them may be inspired by a keen desire to establish a true and sincere relationship with Allah, the Exalted, and to prove themselves good
