His Excellency Dr. Abbas Shoman
The Secretary-General of the Council of Senior Scholars, Al Azhar.

• Extremists' tidal waves of ignorance, subversion and suspicion have hit our tolerant religion and Sharia.

• We came to the land of the Two Holy Mosques preceded by our hearts, and our bodies seeking glimmers of hope that would set our nation back on the right path.

•  We hope that the conference will develop a roadmap to save our Ummah from the predicament it finds itself in, and that the conference will reach deep to the origin of the problem we are experiencing. 

•  The groups of contemporary extremism are deceptively raising the banner of Islam to restore what they call Caliphate by shedding the blood of innocent Muslims.

•  Caliphate is a human system that is not obligatory, and there are other systems that lead to different experiences.

• All systems in place now in Muslim countries are legitimate.
