In His Most Exalted Name
I would like to extend my gratitude to you for the letter which spoke of your honor's health constitution and release. May God bestow health and prosperity upon you. I have not yet been able to read the detailed letter written in exile. There have been demands from Hamedan requesting you, though I find your presence more urgent in Qum for training seminarians. God willing, may you be successful in serving Islam and Muslims wherever you are.
If not bothered, I will stay here «1» until I find a place in an Islamic country. Although it is unpleasant in some ways, but it is a good place for delivering the nation's voice to the world. I ask you to pray for me and may you succeed in serving God. May God's peace and mercy be upon you.
Rouhullah al-Mousawi al-Khomeini
