In the Name of God, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful,
IRGC Brigadier General Hussain Salami,
Given the expression of the need for change in the leadership of the IRGC brought forward by IRGC Major-General Mohammad-Ali Jafari, and while appreciating a decade of valuable service by him, taking into account your qualifications and valuable experiences in important managerial positions and various responsibilities in the revolutionary, Jihad-oriented, and popular sectors of the IRGC, I promote you to the rank of Major-General and appoint you as the commander-in-chief of the IRGC.
Improving capabilities in every aspect, readiness in every domain, reinforcing the roots of the IRGC that include piety and wisdom, increasing methods of management that enjoy moral basis and professional abilities, as well as cultural promotion—all of which have been attended to under the command of Major-General Jafari—are required in order to achieve more progress employing your innovations so that the IRGC will evolve taking great steps.
I ask Allah the Great to bestow prosperity on you and your colleagues.
