In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Mr. Shadhli Bin Jadid, President of the Republic of Algeria,
I received your telegraph on the heartrending tragedy of the recent earthquake in Kerman. I appreciate your sympathy and kindness and beseech God to grant success and glory to all Muslims of the world and to the brotherly people of Algeria.
May God's peace be upon you.
Rouhullah al-Mousawi al-Khomeini
