In His Most Exalted Name
Rabi` ath-Thani 20, 1343 AH
His Eminence Murawwij al-Ahkam wa Thiqat al-Islam Aqa Shaykh Muhammad-Jaawad Hujjati (may his graces last):
I was most happy to receive your kind letter. It was very upsetting to hear about what had happened when you were being welcomed. I ask God Almighty for the solution of the problems of all Muslims of the world, establishment of the truth and refutation of falsehood. I would like to commend Your Eminence, His Eminence Thiqat al-Islam, your brother, «1» and other esteemed gentlemen and scholars, for your considerable efforts and the sufferings and bereavements you have endured. May it be appreciated by His Eminence Master of the Age (may Allah Almighty expedite his glorious advent) and be rewarded.
Please give my sincere regards to the Thiqat al-Islam, your esteemed brother and other reverend clergymen and great scholars. May God's peace and mercy be upon you.
Rouhullah al-Mousawi al-Khomeini
