According to that response, your server went to the tf-pdc server, and this
is the answer it returned.  The delegation is correct -- tf-pdc claims that
the name isn't currently defined.  What happens if you query tf-pdc
directly with "dig habibi.tf-pdc.internal.tflogic.com @10.1.2.1"?

Make sure you don't have a 'zone "tf-pdc.internal.tflogic.com"' statement
in your server's named.conf.
