Permission [Permission in financial and religious law affairs]

In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful

Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds; may peace and salutations be upon Muhammad and his pure progeny; and may Allah's curse be upon all their enemies.

It is hereby confirmed that His Eminence Sayyid al-`Ulama' al-A`lam wa Malja' al-A`nam wa Hujjat al-Muslimin wal-Islam Mr. Haj Sayyid Muhammad `Ali Qadi, may his blessings last and Allah multiple the people like him, has been granted my permission to act as my representative and collect the financial and religious law affairs funds, and their remittance to the religiously prescribed areas. He is also permitted to collect the blessed Shares, remit the Share of the noble Sadat to the religiously prescribed area and spend the one-half of the blessed Share of the Imam (`a) in promoting the message of Islam, as well as to spend it in whatever way he deems fit in a cautious way and to remit the other one-half to this humble servant to be spent in the religious seminaries.

"And I advise him, may God, the Exalted, assist him, as we have been advised by the pious predecessors to keep company of piety, to evade carnal desires and to be meticulous in his worldly and afterworld affairs. I hope he will not forget me in his benevolent prayers." May God's peace, mercy and blessings be upon him and our pious brethren.
