In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds; may salutations be upon our Master Muhammad and his pure progeny and His curse be upon all their enemies.
It is hereby confirmed that His Eminence Thiqat al-Islam, Aqa Shaykh `Ali Asghar Baghani, may his blessings last, is granted my permission to be in charge of the financial and religious law affairs whose supervision is the duty of a fully competent jurist during the occultation of the Living Imam, may God Almighty expedite his glorious advent." So, he will be in charge of the mentioned affairs while exercising the necessary caution." Also, His Eminence is permitted to collect the blessed Imam's share, spending one-third of it in the specified religious ways, and the balance to be remitted to me or to my legal representatives in Qum. He is also permitted to distribute the blessed Imam's Share or postpone the payments as needed.
" And I admonish him, may God Almighty assist him, as we have been admonished by the pious predecessors, to adhere to keep company of piety, to evade carnal desires and to be meticulous in his worldly and afterworld affairs, and I hope he will not forget me in his benevolent prayers". May God's peace, mercy and blessings be upon him and our faithful brethren.
