Decree [The dispatch of an envoy to resolve the problems in the province of Gilan]

In His Most Exalted Name

Your Honorable, Hujjat al-Islam Haj Shaykh Mahdi Rabbani Amlashi,

Concerning the difficulties that have arisen in the Gilan province, you are hereby assigned to pay a visit to different regions of the province of Gilan and survey the problems and then, in coordination with the distinguished local scholars, and Hujjat al-Islam Ihsanbakhsh and other dignitaries- May God assist them all- try to resolve them. You should as well invite people to stay united and to avoid differences at a critical juncture of time such as the present. It is obvious that the other relevant organizations, too, such as the Corps of the Revolutionary Guards, the Mobilization for Reconstruction and other groups will cooperate with you in this significant responsibility and will benefit from your advice and guidance. I pray God the Almighty to make you succeed. May God's peace, mercy and blessings be upon you.

Rouhullah al-Mousawi al-Khomeini
