Permission [Permission in financial and religious law affairs]

In His Most Exalted Name

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

And then, Sayyid al-A`lam and Hujjat al-Islam Mr. Aqa Sayyid- may his blessings last long- is authorized on my behalf to take charge of financial affairs whose incumbency hinges on permission of qualified wali-e faqih in time of major occultation. He is also authorized to collect religious dues and the holy share, use half of the latter for his own expenses and other religiously prescribed cases, and return the other half to me to be spent on promoting the pure word of Islam.

And I advise him- to what our pious predecessors have- to keep company of piety, to evade carnal desires and to be cautious in his worldly and religious affairs. I hope he will not forget me in his benevolent prayers. May God's peace and mercy be upon him and our believing brothers!
