In 1929 , just prior to the rioting over Zionist activity at the Wailing Wall , the deputy High Commissioner , H.C. Luke , organised a lengthy meeting between Arab and Jewish Agency leaders in attempt to calm the situation . The Arab delegation was led by Jamal . The hoped for joint statement did not materialize . Following the riots , in October , he was leader of a delegation sent to London for meetings at the Colonial Office . This was in his capacity as Secretary to the Supreme Muslim Council , an organisation which had been set up by the British , and was led by Hajj Amin Husseini , to whom he was related both through his father and mother . It was the first Palestinian Arab delegation to go to London since 1922 and included Adil Arslan and Izzat Tannous . One of its objectives was the setting up of an information center in London
