 Among those who met with Jinnah to seek his return was Liaquat Ali Khan , who would be a major political associate of Jinnah in the years to come and the first Prime Minister of Pakistan . At Jinnah 's request , Liaquat discussed the return with a large number of Muslim politicians and confirmed his recommendation to Jinnah . In early 1934 , Jinnah relocated to the subcontinent , though he shuttled between London and India on business for the next few years , selling his house in Hampstead and closing his legal practice in Britain .
