Intro
It’s unclear who is Maulvi Abdul Majid, Aka Chaudhry Abdul Majid, (B.A.). He was from the Indian state of Bhagalpur. He was fast friends with Maulvi Hassan Ali Bhagalpuri, who had travelled to Qadian in 1887-1888 and met MGA (see “The three Lectures of Alexander Webb”). MGA gave him some books to read, the “Barahin-i-Ahmadiyya” and “Shahna’-e-Haq”.
In 1923, he married off his daughter (Sara Begum) to the 2nd Khalifa, Mirza Basheer ud Din Mahmud Ahmad. Thus, he was part of the Mirza family.
She got officially married in 1925 (See page 219) and had Mirza Rafi Ahmad in 1927. She had 2 more children and then died in 1933 during child-birth (per Ahmadiyya sources). She was wife #4.
He appears in Ahmadiyya literature via the ROR of Aug-1935, Ahmadiyya sources reported that he was present at the 1934 Jalsa at Qadian, his name is written as Professor Abdul Majid of Bhagulpur state. He was also present at the 1935 Jalsa at Qadian (ROR of Jan-1936).
In the ROR of Dec-1940, his name is listed as Chaudhry Abdul Majid, B.A., he wrote an essay on “Captives of War and Islam”.
He also seems to have an essay in the ROR of Nov-1943.

1886 to 1896
Maulvi Hassan Ali Bhagalpuri thus saw the letters of Alexander Webb in that book and began correspondence with him. It seems that Alexander Webb wrote letters to many Muslims in British India in this era and Haji Abdullah Arab (see “Mujadid-e-Azim”, by Dr. Basharat Ahmad) even went to the Philippines to visit him (see “The three Lectures of Alexander Webb”). Per Maulvi Hassan Ali, Haji Abdullah Arab convinced Alexander Webb to quit his job as the “Consul General” in the Philipinnes and travel to India and then to the USA and start preaching Islam. He landed in British-India (Calcutta), India on Oct 2nd, 1892 (See Singleton) and met up with Moulvi Hasan Ali Sahib Bhagalpuri. Moulvi Hasan Ali accompanied Mr. Webb during his 3 Lectures in Madras, Hyderabad (Deccan) and Bombay. He then travelled North-west toward Agra, most likely via train, and made it to Lahore. He was in British-India from Oct 2nd to Dec-15th 1892. Nevertheless, in late 1892, Webb refused to meet MGA (see page 24, Singleton). He returned to the USA in 1893 and wrote his famous book, “Islam in America”. Moulvi Hasan Ali Sahib Bhagalpuri is listed in 1896 in the famous list (#91) of 313 Ahmadi’s (see Dard)(see Tareekh Ahmadiyyat Vol 1 Page 307).

I will lead two funerals in absentia after leading Prayers. First is of Asma Tahira who was wife of Respected Mirza Khalil Ahmad. She passed away in Canada on 23 December 2016 at the age of 79. Surely, to Allah we belong and to Him shall we return (2:157). She was born in Bhagalpur in June 1935. Respected Maulawi Abdul-Baqi was her father and Respected Safiyya Khatoon was her mother. Her father served the Community for many years and also was the president of the chapter. Hadrat Ali Ahmad was her grandfather. He had pledged allegiance to the Promised Messiah and was his Companion. Respected Amatun-Nur says that he was a 9th grader when he came to Qadian. Hadrat Khalifatul-Masih (May Allah be his Helper) recounted the description of her services to Ahmadiyyat.
