In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
After praising (God) and offering salutations (to the Prophet and his pure progeny (`a)), it is hereby confirmed that His Eminence `Umdat al-A`lam wa Murawwij al-Ahkam Mr. Aqa Shaykh `Abd ar-Rahman Fiqhi, may Allah always assist him, has been granted my permission to be in charge of the financial and religious law affairs, recognizing the subject matter and precepts in a cautious manner. He is also permitted to collect the religious funds such as zakat and alms incognito, economically spend the same in the religiously prescribed areas. He is also permitted to collect the blessed Share of the Imam (`a), economically spend it for his sustenance and remit the remainder to 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 he will not forget me in his benevolent prayers." May God's peace, mercy and blessings be upon him and our pious brethren.
