In His Most Exalted Name
Rajab 4,1385 AH
His Eminence Hujjat al-Islam Mr. Haj Sayyid Mahdi Yathribi, may his blessings last:
Please allow me to thank you for the congratulatory message which you sent on my arrival at the holy cities. Due to the fact that my telegrams are not being delivered I am responding by mail. I ask Almighty God for Your Eminence's continuous success in making the pure message of Islam supreme and I ask for your prayers. May God's peace and mercy be upon you.
Rouhullah al-Mousawi al-Khomeini
P. S. If the learned `ulama' or other residents have sent any telegrams they have not been delivered to me.
