In His Most Exalted Name
Rabi` al-Awwal 13,1390 AH
His Eminence Sayyid al-A`lam wa Thiqat al-Islam Mr. Tahiri, may his graces last:
Your respected missive was received. I was glad to hear that you are recovering from your leg ailment. It is hoped that by the will of Almighty God, your other illness is cured, too. I fervently pray for you and I am worried of your health. However, thanks to God, you are still young and the mental and youth power will help for your speedy recovery.
Thanks to God, I am in good physical health. It is hoped that with the sincere prayers of the gentlemen, the mental worries will be cured. I wonder how expert the physicians in Isfahan are; perhaps you will be better off if you went to Tehran where a faster recovery will ensue. If I can help in any way, I am prepared to do anything for you to recover.
I pray to Almighty God for your recovery. I have not received any missives from you except this one which was received through honorable Mr. Imami.
It was mentioned that I have to send four or five receipts. Please write to me the names and the amounts of funds so I can dispatch. May peace be upon you.
Rouhullah al-Mousawi al-Khomeini
