In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Rabi` al-Awwal 22,1399 AH
Honorable Hujjat al-Islam Haj Shaykh Muhammad Tahir Khaqani, may his blessings last:
After extending my greetings and regards, I would like to express my gratitude for the endeavors your honorable self has taken in this sacred movement. Now that the initial victory, praise be to God, has been achieved, problems are many and should be solved through the efforts of that city's great `ulama'. You, who live in the proximity of the borders, which are very important and sensitive areas, should preside over regional affairs by forming a committee, which you have so far done.
Hearsay has it that some agents have sabotaged schemes under your auspices. I ask the respectable citizens of that area to support His Eminence and thwart their ominous plots. It is hoped that, God willing, with the endeavors of His Eminence and the rest of the brothers residing in that area order will be restored. May God's peace, mercy and blessings be upon you.
