In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
This is to acknowledge with gratitude the receipt of your Eminence's kind letter, which indicates your wellbeing. I have been fervently praying for your Eminence's wellbeing in due circumstances and I will continue doing so, God willing.
Regarding the subjects you had written, I should say that the uprising of the noble nation spearheaded by the distinguished clergy aim to uproot the corruptions of the oppressive monarchial periods, to implement the laws of Islam and to promote the rich Islamic culture in all institutions. Rest assured that by relying on God and the prayer of the Promised Mahdi- may our souls be sacrificed for him- those people who have atheistic and impure ideas will not succeed in penetrating the critical centers to cause corruption. Of course, some government laws, which are for the Islamic system, administering the affairs of Muslims and safeguarding Islam and the Islamic Republic, are not supposed to be overlooked. One should not be neglectful of the conditions of the time and the great transformations that have taken place in the world. Many issues that have emerged were not present during the early period of Islam. All these affairs are meant to safeguard and stabilize the Islamic government. I am hopeful your benevolent prayers. May God's peace and mercy be upon you.
