In His Most Exalted Name
Sha`ban al-Mu`azzam 18,1389 AH
Greetings to the esteemed lady:
I am so glad that Ahmad was joined in marriage with a great and respected family (as yours). I hope, by the will of God, the Exalted, and under the auspices of your sacred ancestors may you enjoy a happy, flourishing and prosperous life together. By the will of God, the Exalted, this marriage will be auspicious, blessed and brimmed with good luck, and prosperity in this world and the next. Thanks to God, you enjoy moral greatness inherited from your great father and paternal ancestors «2» and your respected great mother as well as from your maternal ancestors. «3» It is hoped that by the Name of God, the Exalted, Ahmad, too, enjoys such features of greatness. You are always in my benevolent prayers. Please give my regards to Hadrat Sayyid al-`Ulama' al-A`lam wa Hujjat al-Islam Mr. Sultani, «4» may his blessings last, and the respected lady, your mother, «5» may she live long. May God's peace and mercy be upon you.
