my forward zone configuration

What exactly are you trying to accomplish? A forward zone basically says "go
ask these other nameservers about names in the zone"; a master zone
basically says "load all of the zone data from a file". These are
fundamentally incompatible with each other. Why are you trying to combine
them?
