In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
al-Islam Haj Sayyid `Ali-Akbar Muhtashami Esteemed Ambassador of Islamic Republic of Iran to Syria, may your blessings last,
I was touched by the terrible incident brought about against you by the agents of global imperialism. «1» God willing, you will soon recover your health and continue with your hard struggle in favor of the oppressed and innocent peoples of the world in the bunker of Islam and the revolution. All problems and hardships in the cause of God are sweet and easy for the children of Islam and Qur'an.
Rouhullah al-Mousawi al-Khomeini
