Letter [to Muhsin Qouchani Gharawi]

In His Most Exalted Name

Rajab 23,1396 AH

After extending my greetings and salutations to you, I wish to say that I was pleased to receive your esteemed letter indicating your well-being. Owing to the dreadful news that came, I have made repeated inquiries about the gentlemen there, and, especially, you. It was said that there was no way to pay a visit and make inquiries. I pray to God Almighty to rectify matters. In my opinion it is best for you to proceed to Iran as it is not clear what lies in store for Lebanon. May God Almighty bring about whatever is best for you. I told Mr. Khalkhali «1» that something be written about you. Please do not forget me in your benevolent prayers. May peace be upon you.
