Your Majesty,
My heart grieved as I learned about the terror attack in Barcelona, as the result of which many people had died and been injured. Please accept my sincere condolences.
On these days of mourning I am grieving with the people of Spain, with the relatives and friends of those killed and injured.
I am lifting up my prayers to the All-Merciful Lord that He may grant fortitude and consolation to the families of the victims and the soonest recovery to the injured.
With sincere condolences,
