In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds; may peace and salutations be upon Muhammad and his pure progeny; and may Allah's curse be upon all their enemies.
His Eminence `Imad al-A`lam wa Thiqat al-Islam Mr. Haj Shaykh Ahmad Mutahhari, may his graces last, has been granted my permission to be in charge of the financial and religious law affairs whose supervision is dependent on the permission of a fully-qualified jurist, and after recognizing the precepts and the subject matter in a cautious manner. He is also authorized to collect the blessed Share of the Imam (`a) and spend one-half of it in the religiously prescribed cases, including his sustenance in an economical behavior. He is also authorized to have funds change hands, allow grace period as deemed necessary and collect, spend, and remit in the manner mentioned above.
"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 and mercy be upon him and our pious brethren.
