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 Imad al-A`lam wa Murawwij al-Ahkam Mr. Aqa Shaykh Muhammad Isma`il Najafi, may his blessings last, is my representative with observance of caution in the financial and religious law affairs as well as in the blessed Share of the Imam (`a), which is collected from the believers. Furthermore, half of it is to be spent in the prescribed areas while the other half is to be remitted to this humble servant for the maintenance of the theological schools, and the receipt for the collected funds is to be given to the payers of the funds.
"And I advise him, may God assist him, as we have been advised by the pious predecessors to keep company of piety, to evade carnal desires and to be cautious in his worldly and afterworld affairs. I hope he will not forget me in his benevolent prayers and admonitions." May God's peace, mercy, and blessings be upon him and our faithful brethren.
