In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
"Praise is to Allah, the Lord of the worlds; may peace and salutations be upon Muhammad and his pure progeny, and may God's curse be upon all their enemies."
It is hereby confirmed that His Excellency `Imad al-A`lam wa Thiqat al-Islam Shaykh Muhammad-Rida Najafi- may he always succeed- has been authorized on my behalf to take charge of the financial affairs, to collect the religious funds and to spend the likes zakat and the expiation and injustices alms. Regarding the blessed share of the Imam (`a), he is also permitted to collect and spend it sparingly for his sustenance and to spend one-third of it in propagating the sacred religion and to remit the remainders to this humble servant to spend on promotion of Islam. Concerning the share of the noble Sadat, he is equally permitted to collect and give one-half of it to the Sadat and to remit the other half to this humble servant.
"And I advise him- may God Almighty assist him- as we have been advised by our pious predecessors to adhere to piety, to evade carnal desires and to be cautious in his worldly and afterworld affairs." May God's peace, mercy and blessings be upon him and our faithful brothers.
