In His Most Exalted Name
His Eminence, Hujjat al-Islam Haj Sayyid Ya`qoub Mousawi Zanjani (may his blessings last long),
May his noble being be protected and be busy to divine duties! I wish to inform you that I received a letter from the honorable residents of the town of Khodabandeh(Qidar), asking you to say Friday Prayer there. Considering the status quo and Muslims' needs to more of such gatherings, it is deemed advisable to accept their invitation and perform this divine obligation there. You are hereby appointed as the congregational leader of that region. It is hoped that the honorable residents also make use of this opportunity, not with holding the necessary cooperation to perform it as splendid as possible. May peace and mercy of Allah be upon you!
