Hazrat Choudhry Sir Muhammad Zafrulla Khan (ra) — Page 75

There was a steady stream of Ahmadis and non-Ahmadis visiting for condolences. We entered the room where his body was lying. Dressed in white sheets, the dervish lay asleep with amazing splendour. Even at that time, the badge of kalima ّ اہلل ال ا الہ ال اہلل رسول محمّد , for upholding which he had dedicated all his faculties throughout his life, was shining on his chest. After seeing the luminous face of the soul-at- rest, we participated twice in the funeral prayers for him at Lahore and Rabwah. Later, when he was being buried in the special enclosure of the Bahishti Maqbara (The Heavenly Graveyard) Rabwah with permission of Hazrat Khalifatul Masih IV (may Allah have mercy upon him) , this humble one also had the good fortune of taking part in his burial. I shoved some soil on the grave and joined the final prayer. WChaudhry Muhammad Zafrulla Khan Sahib departed from this world after having lived a very blessed and successful life. May Allah the Exalted grant him a worthy station close to Him. He has departed, but his memories live on and will always be remembered affectionately.
