What the family kept

Hazrat Khalifatul Masih V (aba) greeting him at a gathering of the old students of Talim-ul-Islam College. He had been the first name on the register when the college opened at Qadian in 1944, roll number one, and he was greeted as such more than sixty years later.

A history of Bhera, printed locally, which records his father Master Imam Ali and his son. It is the town he was born in, in 1927, and the pages are the reason his father can be named here at all.

The poem he published in Al Fazl in 1955, while he was still a student at Jamia Ahmadiyya, cut from the paper and kept. It is the earliest piece of his writing the family holds.
