 Basit Khan Sahib, Za'im Baltimore proudly holding the Alam In’ami, along with Sadr and Naib Sadr Ansarullah, and Imam Rizwan Khan Sahib  Sad demise of Mubashir Ahmad Chaudhry Sahib of Silicon Valley Jamaat Wali Shaikh (Za'im Silicon Valley Majlis)  On January 6, 2020, Mubashir Ahmad Chaudhry Sahib passed away in his home while surrounded by loved ones. Inna Lillahi Wa Inna Ilaihi Raji‘ūn. To Him we belong and to Him shall we return. He is survived by his three children: Muhammad Ahmad Chaudhry (aka MAC), Ramla Chaudhry, and Eamon Virk; and six grandchildren: Yusuf, Adeen, Momin, Dania, Shazz, and Maaz. May Allah bless his soul and grant him a special status in paradise.In July of 1972, he got married to Amatul Karim Nusrat Chaudhry, daughter of Dr. Ghulam Mustafa. They moved to the United States in 1983 and settled in San Jose, California. In San Jose, as husband and wife, they spearheaded the origins of a vibrant and cohesive chapter of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community in Silicon Valley. With hard work and the grace of Allah, the Chaudhry household forged a strong bond with Community members that only strengthened once they started organizing Jummah (Friday) prayers at their home. They would move their furniture to the yard and transform their home into a temporary mosque for prayers—followed by a sumptuous lunch, lovingly cooked by the family. In the San Jose Jamaat, Chaudhry Sahib served as the local Finance Secretary for over 25 years. He cherished opportunities to serve Khalifatul-Masih. For example, in 2005 when Huzoor (aba) mentioned how we should remember the Companions of the Promised Messiah(as), he created a calendar out of their photos as a means to remind people of their good deeds. Likewise, when Huzoor (aba) delivered a sermon with his desire that more people should become Moosi, i.e. pledge Wasiyyat, Chaudhry Sahib went one by one to people’s homes to convince them to sign up for this noble financial sacrifice. He and his late wife Amatul Karim Sahiba were blessed to perform the Hajj pilgrimage in 2013. Mubashir Chaudhry Sahib was the patriarch not only of the Chaudhry family, but of the entire Silicon Valley Ahmadiyya Muslim Community. He was the beloved father figure that everybody looked to for sage advice, guidance, mentorship, and prayer. His family members eagerly sought his counsel to enjoy the warmth of his company or a chat over the phone whenever anyone was down or struggling. May Allah bless his soul (Ameen).
