Chaudhry Sahib was very fortunate in this respect that in addi- tion to his being a companion of the Promised Messiah, he was very close to Hazrat Maulvi Nuruddin, Khalifatul Masih I and later on earned the affection and love of Hazrat Musleh-e- Mauood Khalifatul Masih II. Hazrat Chaudhry Sahib had the dis- tinction of announcing the "Fazle Umar Foundation Scheme" under instructions of Hazrat Khalifatul Masih III in December, 1965. He served under four Khalifas and our present beloved Imam, Hazrat Mirza Tahir Ahmad held him in great esteem. On the 6th of September 1985 Huzoor in his Friday Sermon mentioned about the passing away of Chaudhry Sahib. He said that in Sura KAHF the word "Kalima" has been used and one of these "Kalimas" is the Promised Messiah (peace be on him) and others are the "Momeneen. " Huzoor said that he was convinced that by the Grace of Allah Hazrat Chaudhry Sahib was one of such Kalimas, who had attained the highest degree of 'Taqwa" and he must have reached his Allah "Raziatan Marziah. " Hazrat Chaudhry Sahib was fully intoxicated in the love of Allah and was the living symbol of the obedience of the Promised Messiah, who had written in his book 'Tajalliat-e-Ilahiya" that 'The people of my sect would reach the height of knowledge and understanding and every nation of the world would drink from this spring. " Huzoor said that this prophecy, besides others, has been fulfilled in the person of Hazrat Chaudhry Sahib. " May Allah be pleased with him. It may be mentioned here that on Chaudhry Sahib's death the United Nation's flags were flown at half mast as a token of respect for him. 36
