In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
I beg to inform you that your respected letter indicating your honorable health is acknowledged. Thanks be to God, the measures you have taken, which were close to the goal, brought peace of mind for the respected inhabitants, and contributed in the promotion of the lofty shari`ah are acknowledged and appreciated. It is hoped that God, the Exalted, would grant you success and succor so that you can be more successful in promotion of the message of truth and in the propagation of the Ja`fari (`a) teachings. Concerning the workers, you can allow those whose occupations are not repugnant to the religious laws to remain in their jobs and if they incur surplus income they should pay khums. I request prayers from you. May God's peace and mercy be upon you.
