Letter Subject: Announcing good health and recommending patience to the family


                        Mustafa's honorable mother, may God keep her alive and make her patient


I hope you are healthy and happy. I am fine, thanks to God. Do not worry about me. Whatever God Almighty has predestined will happen:" It may happen that ye hate a thing which is good for you." Mustafa is also fine, thanks to God, and there is nothing to worry about. I am only a little unhappy because I do not know your conditions. May God, the Blessed and Exalted, protect you all. Give my regards to all the children and their families. If you receive this letter, please reply soon through His Eminence Hujjat-al-Islam Haj Aqa Fadlullah Khwansari; maybe he can somehow send it to me. Please have all children write a few words in their own handwritings, when you reply the letter. Give my regards to Mustafa's wife. Let her write a few words, too. Give my regards to my honorable brothers.
