In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds; may peace and salutations be upon Muhammad and his pure progeny; and may Allah's curse be upon all their enemies.
It is hereby confirmed that His Eminence Sayyid al-`Ulama' al-A`lam Mr. Aqa Sayyid Ya`qoub Mousawi Zanjani, may his graces last, has been granted my permission to be in charge of the financial and religious law affairs whose supervision is the duty of a fully-qualified jurist during the occultation of Wali al-Amr, may Allah expedite his advent," so that he will be in charge of the mentioned affairs while exercising caution." He is also permitted to collect the blessed Share of the Imam, spend it for his economical sustenance and to spend the Sadat's Share for the religiously specified area and to remit the balance to this humble servant to be spent for the religious seminaries.
" And I advise him, may God, the Exalted, assist him, as we have been advised by the pious predecessors to keep company of piety, to evade carnal desires and to be meticulous in his worldly and afterworld affairs. I hope that he will not forget me in his benevolent prayers." May God's peace, mercy and blessings be upon him and our pious brethren.
