==Family and early life==

===Family===

Chaudhry Zafarullah Khan was born on 6 February 1893 in the City of Sialkot in [[Sialkot District]].<ref name=":0">{{Cite book|last=Khan|first=Mhammad Zafarullah|title=My Mother|publisher=The London Mosque|year=1981|location=16 Gressenhall Road London SW18|pages=1–3}}</ref> His family were [[Zamindar]]s of [[Sahi clan|Sahi]] [[Jat Muslim|Jat]] extraction based around [[Daska]] and were of the headman of their village the other being a Sahi [[Jat Sikh|Sikh Sardar]]. Khan's family had suffered a decline during the Sikh era due to government favoritism towards Sikhs and the early death of his Great Grandfather which resulted in his grandfather, Chaudhry Sikandar Khan to become the [[village head]]man in his adolescence. However, over time, Chaudhry Sikander Khan regained much of the family's status and became a widely respected around Daska.<ref name=":0" /> Sikandar Khan's son and Zafarullah Khan's father, Chaudhry Nasrullah Khan became part of the first wave of Landed Gentry of Sialkot to receive a western education and became one of the most prominent lawyers of Sialkot district. Both of his parents were deeply religious Qadianis (Ahmadis) and followers of [[Mirza Ghulam Ahmad]], founder of the [[Ahmadiyya Movement|Ahmadiyya movement]].

Khan's mother, Hussain Bibi, belonged to a well to do Zamindar family hailing from the [[Bajwa|Bajwa tribe of Jats]]. She was his father's maternal [[first cousin]]. Hussain Bibi and Zafarullah Khan were incredibly close and Khan called her the most powerful influence in his life. Hussain Bibi was deeply religious and was known for her exceptionally firm belief in God. Hussain Bibi had lost her first two children in their infancy. Relatives thought it was because she had refused to give offerings demanded by Jai Devi, a self acclaimed village [[Witchcraft|witch]], who villagers thought delved in black magic. They urged her to appease Jai Devi, however, Hussain Bibi bluntly refused even after mounting pressure from the family after the second infant's death. Arguing that she would gladly give charity to Jai Devi but since Jai Devi had claimed to control her infants ability to live or die she could not as it violated her faith. Stating that it would be tantamount to [[Shirk (Islam)|Shirk]] as only [[Qadar|Allah controlled who lived or died]].

[[Lord Linlithgow|Sir Zafarullah Khan]] prepared a note on future of dominion status of India analyzing the future prospects of "Dominion Status".<ref name="note1">[https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6LsF-c2Z-WlQjZKU19yVjhuVWM/view Note]</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=Note by Sir Zafarullah Khan on Dominion Status|series=MSS EUR F125/135|publisher=British Library|pages=117–150|publication-date=6 March 1940}}</ref> It took into account concerns of Muslims and ultimately proposed a plan for division of subcontinent.

The Nawab then proceeded to announce his decision.<ref>{{cite book | title=Between Two Fires: Towards an Understanding of Jawaharlal Nehru's Foreign Policy, Volume 2 | author=Singh, Iqbal | pages=41–44}}</ref>

[[File:International Court of Justice.jpg|thumb|Khan led the [[International Court of Justice]] at [[The Hague]].]]

In October 1947, Zafarullah Khan represented Pakistan at the [[United Nations General Assembly]] as head of the Pakistani delegation and advocated the position of the Muslim world on the [[Intercommunal conflict in Mandatory Palestine|Palestinian issue]]. That year, he was appointed Pakistan's first [[Foreign Minister]], a post he held for seven years. Between 1948 and 1954, he also represented Pakistan at the United Nations [[Security Council]] where he advocated the liberation of occupied [[Kashmir]], [[Libya]], Northern Ireland, [[Eritrea]], [[Somalia]], [[Sudan]], [[Tunisia]], [[Morocco]], and Indonesia.

As Foreign Minister, he represented Pakistan at the Manila Treaty Conference in September 1954.

Zafarullah signed the [[Manila Pact]], committing Pakistan's accession to the [[Southeast Asia Treaty Organization]] ([[SEATO]]).

==Religion==

[[File:ZafarullahKhanAhmadiyyaJapan.png|thumb|Zafarullah Khan in Japan, along with Japanese converts to the Ahmadiyya movement.]]

As an Ahmadi, Zafarullah Khan held the office of Ameer (president) of the [[Lahore]], Pakistan chapter of the Community from 1919 to 1935.<ref name="alislam.org"/> He served as Secretary to [[Mirza Bashir-ud-Din Mahmood Ahmad|Khalifatul Masih II]], the second successor of [[Mirza Ghulam Ahmad]], at the [[Ahmadiyya#The Consultative Council|''Majlis-e-Shura'']] (Consultative Council) for the first time in 1924, and continued to do so for 17 more sessions. In addition, he was a member of the delegation which represented the Ahmadiyya Community at the All Parties Conference held in 1924. In 1927, he acted successfully as representative counsel for the Muslims of the [[Punjab region|Punjab]] in the contempt of court case against the ''Muslim Outlook''.<ref name="alislam.org"/>

As Pakistan's first [[Minister of Foreign Affairs (Pakistan)|Foreign Minister]], Zafarullah Khan addressed the [[Constituent Assembly of Pakistan]] in the days leading up to the passing of the [[Objectives Resolution]]. The Objectives Resolution, which combined features of both Western and [[Islamic democracy]], is one of the most important documents in the constitutional history of Pakistan. It was designed to provide equal rights for all citizens of Pakistan, regardless of their race, religion or background. Zafarullah Khan was quoted as saying:

{{Quotation|It is a matter of great sorrow that, mainly through mistaken notions of zeal, the Muslims have during the period of decline earned for themselves an unenviable reputation for intolerance. But that is not the fault of Islam. Islam has from the beginning proclaimed and inculcated the widest tolerance. For instance, so far as freedom of conscience is concerned the Quran says "There shall be no compulsion" of faith...<ref>{{cite web | url=http://arunshourie.voiceofdharma.com/articles/19970721.htm | title=Surely, the Basic Lesson Flows from the Basic Premise | access-date=10 March 2011 | author=Shourie, Arun}}</ref>|Muhammad Zafarullah Khan||addressing the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan, c. 1949}}

In March 1958, Zafarullah Khan performed [[Umrah]] and, at the same time, visited the shrine of Prophet [[Muhammad]] in [[Medina]], Saudi Arabia. During his visit, he met with the King of Saudi Arabia [[Saud of Saudi Arabia]], and stayed at the Royal Palace as a personal guest of the king. In 1967, he returned to Saudi Arabia to perform [[Hajj]], a religious duty that must be carried out at least once in a lifetime by every able-bodied Muslim who can afford to do so.

==Legacy==

Khan's legacy has been hailed and his paramount role in the creation of Pakistan has been celebrated in the history of Pakistan. He is popularly known by his title Sir. Zafarullah Khan openly acknowledged that he belonged to the [[Ahmadiyya Community|Ahmadiyya Muslim Community]]. He was selected by Muhammad Ali Jinnah as the first Foreign Minister of Pakistan. He was one of the most influential, skilled, and passionate diplomats of his time.

In a personal tribute, King [[Hussein of Jordan|Hussein bin Tallal]] of Jordan said:

{{Quotation|"He was indeed a champion of the Arab cause and his ceaseless efforts whether among the Muslim and non-aligned countries or at the International Court of Justice will remain forever a shining example of a great man truly dedicated to our faith and civilization."|''Review of Religions'', September/October 1986, pg. 6}}

[[Muhammad Fadhel al-Jamali]], a former [[Prime Minister of Iraq]], in a tribute on his death, wrote:
{{Quotation|"In fact, it was not possible for any Arab, however capable and competent he may be, to serve the cause of Palestine in a manner in which this distinguished and great man dedicated himself. What was the result of the debate in the United Nations is another matter. But, it must be acknowledged that Mohammad Zafrulla Khan occupies a pre-eminent position in defending the Palestinians in this dispute. We expect from all Arabs and followers of Islam that they will never forget this great Muslim fighter. After Palestine, the services of this man for the independence of Libya also deserves admiration. In the United Nations, his struggle for the rights of Arabs formed the basis of firm and lasting friendship between us."|''Al-Sabah'', 10 October 1985}}

An editorial in ''[[Dawn (newspaper)|Dawn]]'' of Karachi stated that:
{{Quotation|"He earned the abiding respect and admiration of the Arab and other Muslim nations as a defender of their interests."| ''Dawn'' editorial, 3 September 1985}}
