In His Most Exalted Name
Sha`ban 28,1392 AH
My dear daughter,
Your noble letter arrived. As you have no illness or discomfiture, thanks to god, the Exalted, I am extremely happy. By the will of God, the Exalted, may you always be healthy, happy and joyful. Thanks to God, we are fine. Because of an appendicitis operation Husayn «2» is in Najaf Hospital for a few days and, thanks to God, he is fine. The others are fine. I have no news but that which you wrote about Khanum. «3» Certainly she is busy with visiting and recreation and has neglected us. God willing, she is fine and happy. We expect you to send back her soon. Give my regards to Mr. A`rabi «4» and my darling Miss Fereshteh. «5» Inform me of your and the others' health. May peace be with you.
Your father
Najaf, Iraq
