In His Most Exalted Name

His Eminence `Imad al-A`lam wa Thiqat al-Islam Mr. Jalali, may his graces last:
Your noble letter arrived. Now that the bearer has left the Holy City of Mecca, I am responding to yours. «1» I pray to God, the Exalted, for your health and success. It is hoped that you would be successful in your service to the sacred law of Islam and the Muslims. I hope for your benevolent prayers. May peace be upon you.
