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 Sayyid al-A`lam wa Hujjat al-Islam Mr. Shaykh Muhammad Bilal Dawud, May Allah always assist him, is authorized to take charge of the financial and religious law affairs that depend on the permission of a fully-qualified jurist with the observance of caution; he is also permitted to collect the blessed Share of the Imam (`a) whose one-third is to be spent as prescribed by religious laws while the other two-thirds is to be remitted to this humble servant and receipt of payment is to be given to the payers of the funds. He is also authorized to allow the payers of the funds themselves to give the Share of the Sadat to the poor and chaste Sadat.
"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 cautious 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 faithful brethen.
