In His Most Exalted Name
Dhou'l-Hijjah 21,1385 AH
His Eminence `Imad al-A`lam wa Hujjat al-Islam honorable preacher, may his blessings last:
I am sad to learn of the calamity that befell you, nay to the Muslims. I hope, by His will, God will bestow health, abundant patience and mercy to you and other members of the bereaved family. I didn't send you a telegram because I was afraid they won't deliver it to you just as so far they have refused to deliver my telegrams and letters. May God's peace and mercy be upon you.
