In His Most Exalted Name
Jamadi ath-Thani 10,1396 AH
His Eminence `Imad al-A`lam wa Thiqat al-Islam Aqa Miri, may his blessings last long:
After extending my greetings to you, I wish to inform you that I have received your letter. May God give you success and assistance.
1- Concerning the money, you may send to Qum whatever you want to send. Send it through somebody trustworthy to be delivered to Hadrat Hujjat al-Islam Aqa Pasandideh, my brother. It is not needed here. If you wish to correspond, you may write to this address: c/ o Sattari, Aqa Buroujerdi Madrasah, Najaf. It will so reach its destination, God willing.
2- You are permitted to collect and deliver the things that are given on behalf of the government to the people mentioned.
3- With regard to the people mentioned as acting against the way of the clergy, let me tell you that there are many of them everywhere. Standing up to them requires power which is not there at present. I beseech God to make them mend their ways.
My deepest gratitude for your expression of sympathy towards me and for remembering me in your prayers. I pray for God Almighty to bless you and make you successful in this world and in the hereafter.
May God's peace and mercy be upon you.
Rouhullah al-Mousawi al-Khomeini
