Letter [to Sayyid Mahdi Yathribi]

In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
I have the honor to inform you that I was grateful to receive your kind letter and to know about your good health. I ask God Almighty for your success and happiness. If you think it advisable, the honorable clergymen and other classes are kindly requested to issue a statement of support to Qum and to express regret over the disastrous event. It is hoped that by the will of God, we can stop the evil they intend to raise. I hope you do not forget me in your worthy prayers, whenever you feel they are accepted by God. May God's peace, mercy, and blessings be upon you.
