The meeting emphasized the importance of unity and brotherhood among the Ummah, respect for each other, and constant dialogue among the various sects as essential for the success of the Ummah. The meeting urged all Shia and Sunni organizations, scholars, preachers, speakers, and imams to play a constructive role in maintaining unity and harmony among all Muslims of IIOJK, especially as the sacred days of Muharram commence.

The meeting appreciated the efforts of the Majlis-e-Ulema patron Mirwaiz Umar Farooq in playing a leading role in fostering unity among the Ummah and taking everyone along. Despite being kept under house arrest for more than four years and repeatedly detained at home, he continues to strive to forge unity among the Muslims of the territory. The meeting denounced that Mirwaiz was again put under house arrest on Sunday.

The meeting also denounced the unjust and unfair suspension of Dr. Kamal Farooqi, the preacher and Imam of Asaar Shareef Dargah Hazratbal, by the IIOJK Waqf Board and urged the authorities to immediately reinstate him without delay.
