In His Most Exalted Name
Rabi` ath-Thani 26,1386 AH
After praising (God) and offering salutations (to the Prophet and his pure progeny (`a)), it is hereby confirmed that His Eminence `Imad al-`Ulama' al-A`lam wa Hujjat al-Islam Mr. Haj Shaykh Muhammad Hashimian, may his graces last, who is my representative, has the right of substitution and to retain trustworthy persons in whatever manner he deems fit and authorize them in the financial and religious law affairs. He is also permitted to deliver the blessed Share of the Sadat to the local poor, religious and pious Sadat." I hope he, whose supplications are heard, will not forget me in his benevolent prayers." May God's peace, mercy and blessings be upon him and our faithful brethren.
