In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds; may God's salutation be upon Muhammad and his pure progeny; and may His curse be upon all their enemies.
Let it be known to all the esteemed believers of the said regions from Bamiyan (Sayyidabad, Haydarabad, Sarasiya, Dasht-e `Isakhan, Gourvan Bala va Pa'in, Surkhdar, Alituychi and Patsati) that His Eminence Murrawvij al-Ahkam Aqa Sayyid Muhammad Haydar Murtadawi is my legal representative in the above-mentioned districts in collecting the blessed share of the Imam (`a). He is permitted to spend one-third in cases prescribed by religious law, and another one-third with a quarter of the zakat, to be spent in the Bamiyan theological center under the supervision of the honorable Aqa `Imad al-A`lam Murawwij al-Ahkam Sayyid Muhammad Husayn Fahimi Katway. Moreover, he should send the balance to me for the maintenance of the important theological centers, obtain the receipts thereof and forward them to the payers.
" And I advise him, may God always assist him, to be pious and cautious, and I hope that he will include me in his benevolent prayers." May God's peace, mercy and blessings be upon him and our faithful brethren.
