In His Most Exalted Name
Shawwal 11,1393 AH
Thank you for your esteemed letter sent through Mr. Kashmiri. I wish you health and prosperity. People say that you are, thanks to God, in good health. I hope that it gets even better, though untoward occurrences leave one out of spirits.
All of us were really sorry to hear about the demise of the late Mr. Esfandiyari. «2» May God give you comfort and the bereaved, fortitude and forbearance.
I am keeping well, by the grace of God, though old age often takes its toll. In any case, I am grateful to God for His mercies. I solicit your prayers. May God's peace and mercy be upon you.
Give my regards to your dear son.
