Intro
In 1897, June 20 and 21, were declared to be the dates on which the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria was to be celebrated through out India. MGA issued a leaflet on June 7, 1897, asking his followers to reach Qadian before June 20 for this purpose.  Many years later, the report of this Jalsa were published in book form as part of the Ruhani Khuzain collection.  It was called as “Jalsa-e-Ahbab” or in english as “A Gathering of Friends” (as translated in Hidden Treaures).  It covers 37 pages in Urdu and was printed at the Diya’ul-Islam Press, Qadian, however, the first copy (edition) is missing from the records.

Meetings were held on June 20, and lectures were delivered in six languages, Urdu, Arabic, Persian, English, Punjabi and Pashto. The speakers included Hadrat Maulavi Hakim Nur-ud-Din, Maulavi ‘Abdul Karim, Maulavi Burhan-ud-Din of Jhelum and Maulavi Jamal-ud-Din. A congratulatory telegram was sent to Lord Elgin, the Viceroy of India, on June 20, 1897. Prayers were offered and the poor of the town were fed throughout June 20-22, and a feast was held on the June 21. Streets, mosques and houses were illuminated on evening of June 22.
