Message [Disagreement with any delay in the referendum on the Constitution]

In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful

My brothers in Kurdistan, Balouchestan and Turkmansahra and other Sunni brothers,

Concerning your request for the postponement of the referendum so that some of the principles could be revised, I should remind you that any delay of even a few days would endanger dear Islam and our country which is being threatened by disbelievers. Be sure that your demands, either tribal or national, well be taken care of like the demands of other walks of our society. God willing, everybody, in near future, will enjoy the comforts of life and will live in welfare. I ask you dear Muslims to cast your positive ballots. This will satisfy the Almighty God.
