In a call to action, author Marai Haydari urged Arab citizens to participate in upcoming elections, emphasizing that silence and retreat are no longer options during what he described as the most dangerous phase of a struggle for existence and dignity. Haydari stressed that national duty now requires unifying ranks and voices to head to the ballot boxes to defend rights and counter what he termed fierce attacks targeting the Arab populace, their dignity, and their right to live in security and equality.
Haydari appealed to the Arab community, stating that their votes are a trust, their participation a responsibility, and their unity a significant force. He warned against leaving the political arena to those seeking to weaken them and cautioned against allowing despair to steal their future.

"Open your hearts before your pockets," Haydari implored the representatives, urging them to utilize their capabilities to support their constituents and not withhold from those who brought them to positions of responsibility. He concluded by stating that dignity is not preserved by words alone, nor is patriotism measured by slogans, but rather proven through sincere stances and dedicated work during times of hardship, including using personal funds to aid the needy and encourage voter turnout.
