Permission [Permission in financial and religious law affairs]

In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Praise is to Allah, the Lord of the worlds; may God's peace be upon Muhammad and his pure progeny, and His curse be upon all their enemies.
Then, Hujjat al-Islam Shaykh Asadullah `Arshi Najafabadi- may his blessings last long- is authorized on my behalf to take charge of the financial affairs which is pending the permission of wali-ye faqih in occultation of the promised Savior (May God hastens his reappearance). He is also authorized to collect religious dues and holy shares spend the holy share of Imam (peace be upon him) for his sustenance in an economical manner and one third of the remaining shares on the prescribed cases and promotion of the sacred Shari`ah and return the remaining two thirds to me to spend on the advancement of the pure word of Islam.
In addition, I advise him- may God the Exalted assist him- to what pious predecessors did, to adhere to piety, to evade carnal desires and to be cautious in religious and worldly affairs. May God's peace and mercy be upon him and all the believers!
