Quaid-i-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah:

Urdu book Tahrik Huriyyat Kashmir (History of Independence Movements in Kashmir), volume 2, 1936 - 1945, page 291:

"Newspaper correspondents asked him a question about Mirza'is, that they are not being allowed to join the Muslim Conference
because they are considered as non-Muslims. What is your opinion about this? Mr. Jinnah replied: 'Who am I to declare a person as non-Muslim who calls himself a Muslim?'
A footnote in the book at this point explains the background to the question:

"At the revival of the Muslim Conference, its constitution had been made flexible so that no Ahmadi could become a member of the Conference."
Shown below is an image of the signed letter by Quaid-i-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah accepting the invitation to attend this Press Conference:
