In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
"Praise to be 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 confirmed that His Excellency Hujjat al-Islam Haj Sayyid Masih Shah-Cheraghi- may his graces last- has been granted permission by the undersigned to take charge of the financial affairs, to collect the religious funds and to spend such as zakat, and the expiation and injustices alms of the servants of God as prescribed. Regarding the two blessed shares, he is also permitted to collect and spend them on his sustenance in economical manner. In case of surplus, he is also permitted to spend one-third of the blessed share of the Imam (`a) on propagating the sacred religion and to give half of the share of the Sadat to the needy Sadat and to remit the remainder of the two blessed shares to this humble servant to be spent on promotion of Islam.
"And I advise him (may God, the Exalted, assist him) as we have been advised by our predecessors to adhere to piety, to evade carnal desires and to be meticulous in his worldly and afterworld affairs." May God's peace, mercy and blessings be upon him and upon our faithful brethren.
