In His Most Exalted Name
His Eminence Hujjat al-Islam wal-Muslimin Haj Sayyid `Abdul-Husayn Dastghayb- may his blessings last:
Your letter stating that your esteemed self is in good health was duly received. Also the scroll sent by the respected residents of Shiraz was received via the courier in whom they had requested that your esteemed self accept the invitation of the gentlemen to lead the Friday prayers. As such it is appropriate that Your Eminence take action and lead the Friday prayers in Shiraz. I pray to God for the continued success and well-being of Your Eminence. May God's peace, mercy and blessings be upon you.
