I was happy to receive your worthy letter expressing congratulations on my arrival in the holy city. I had sent you a telegram before which may have not been delivered, since they have not been sending my telegrams for some time; just as they have not delivered the telegrams from Iran to me. Please inform the respected clergymen and other people of this matter. I ask God Almighty for the success of all distinguished `ulama' (may their blessings last) in exalting the pure word of Islam, and I pray for your benevolent prayers. May God's peace and mercy be upon you.
Rouhullah al-Mousawi al-Khomeini
I thank you for all the trouble you took. May God Almighty reward you for all this and may He endow you with good health and happiness.
