In the Name of God

Hello.

I am Alireza Bakshi.

I am ten years old and I live in Tehran.

To be honest, I don’t know if my letter will reach you or not.

I wish I could speak with you face to face.

To be honest, we owe you a great deal for your guidance.

This money is also to thank you and to help the fighters of Islam.

Your friend who wishes to see you,

Alireza Bakshi Iraj

In the Name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

My dear friend, Mr. Alireza Bakshi,

Peace be upon you and the mercy of God and His blessings.

I thank you for your kind attention. Of course, this humble servant’s birthday is in the month of Esfand. In return, I too present a gift, however modest, in exchange for your generosity. Please convey my greetings to the members of your family.
