Letter [to Sayyid `Abbas Muhri]

[In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
al-Islam wal-Muslimin Ayatullah al-`Uzma Imam al-Mujahid Sayyid Rouhullah al-Mousawi al-Khomeini, may his sublime presence for the Muslims endure by the grace of God:
After extending my greetings and best wishes for you, I wish to state that in order to protect the Muslim girls from corrupting influences and dissoluteness, I have taken steps to establish a modern, Islamic school in Kuwait named Ja`fari Girls' School so that the necessary grounds are laid for their sound Islamic education and upbringing as pleases God and His Messenger, and as expected from our girls.
The pious are not favorably inclined nor deem it proper to donate money for such religious purposes unless they are approved by the religious authorities. Therefore, it is hoped that they would be encouraged to help in the establishment and completion of the school so that they realize fully that assisting and supporting such Islamic centers is a social obligation, and renders valuable service to the Shi`ah whose future generations will never forget.
Sincerely yours, Sayyid `Abbas Mouhri]

In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Your admirable and religiously-oriented efforts in Kuwait to protect the Muslim children from moral depravity, and for their proper Islamic upbringing-as we hear from well-informed, trustworthy people-are hereby appreciated and gratefully acknowledged. God will reward you for your goodness. The respectable Kuwaitis are expected to extend their moral and material cooperation in this important religious duty; to endeavor their utmost for the propagation of the lofty Islamic culture among the youth, thus earning God Almighty's pleasure and approval. I beseech God to grant you firmness of purpose and success in the task, and to Islam and the Muslims, glory and honor.
May God's peace and mercy be upon you.
Rouhullah al-Mousawi al-Khomeini
