In His Most Exalted Name
Rabi` al-Thani 10,1393 AH
His Eminence Sayyid al-A`lam wa Thiqat al-Islam Mr. Misbah, may his graces last:
Your respected letter arrived. I pray to God, the exalted, for your health and success. It was written that a letter on the part of a group of respected individuals from there was sent but a reply «1» to it did not arrive. I do not remember such a matter. It is possible that the letter or its reply did not arrive. At any rate, I am grateful to the respected gentlemen for their kindness. Convey my greeting to the gentlemen. I hope for your and others' benevolent prayers. May Allah's peace and mercy be upon you.
Rouhullah al-Mousawi Khomeini
