[Bahman 18,1367 AHS I said to Mr. Mousawi Ardebili:" Regarding the person who is sentenced to death, the Imam said: `It must be done based on religious law'." He said:" Based on my view [and discernment]?" I said:" Yes." Thereafter, I doubted; perhaps I should not act according to his view. By the way, time and again, you have permitted him to act according to his view. Kindly state below this letter whether he has to act according to his view, or your view. «1»]
In His Most Exalted Name
He should act according to his view.
Rouhullah al-Mousawi al-Khomeini
