Question 192:  Do you know where I can find the risalah of Ayatollah Khamenei online? Is there another name for risalah? Maybe I am searching for it wrong. Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 192:  Ayatollah Khamenei did not publish His risalah yet, but a number of people left him with no other choice. They knew his fatwas and wrote a risalah according to his fatwa and published it.

There are two volumes of the book of Ajwabat al-Istiftaat that have been translated from Arabic to Farsi and English languages.

In order to find his own fatwa you can refer to the following references:

1. The book Tawzih al-Masael of Maraja’s (where the verdicts of twelve marja’s have been gathered).
2. The book Ajwabat al-Istifta’at (which are available in Farsi, Arabic and English[1] languages).
3. A new book called educational risalah (Risala’ye Amoozeshi) which is available in Farsi language.[2]
4. To ask your question or correspond with him, you can refer to or call his office.[3]
5. In case you have got any question you will be able to submit it through his Website.[4]
6. You can also refer to Tahrir al wasilah and the Fiqhi books (which is available in English Language) on his website.[5]
