In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful
"Praise be 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 confirmed that His Eminence Hujjat al-Islam Haj Shaykh `Abdul-Qa'im Shoushtari- 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 the likes of 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 in the expenditures, he is also permitted to spend one-third of the blessed share of the Imam (`a) on propagating the sacred religion, to collect the share of the Sadat and give half of it to the needy Sadat and to remit what is left from the two shares to this humble servant.
"And I admonish him (may God, the Exalted, assist him) as we have been advised by our pious predecessors to adhere to piety, to evade carnal desires and to be meticulous in his worldly and afterworld affairs." May God's peace and mercy be upon him and upon our faithful brethren.
