The Group surprised all people by the four books for correcting concepts. The studies of Jama'a were serious and final which can not be misunderstood.

These books and declarations surprised all critics dare not do, it criticized Usama bin Laden and the organization of kaeda. It declared it was ready to give compensations to those who were harmed. It is a strict situation without "But" which hindered the previous situation. When the group feedback its attitude it approaches the status of political Islam and it was the status of political Islam and it was the status of Hassan Al-banna and the status of some of informing Groups. It is a conversion from Political Islam into Worshipping and from authority to majority.

Dr Abdel Sabut Shahein said "The intervention was not completed because of the state. This idea was completely dumped till it was declared in 1997 in the shape of declaration recited in one of the court sessions. Now there are discussions on that matter between the Group and the state and it might come to positive results especially that the previous period was so enough that it taught the Jama'a which discovered that it come to a blank wall. Although the state begins at the same point which it was started from in 1997. Although I would not discuss the reasons for the come back of negotiations again, I see it necessary for the state to absorb all these people in a planned way. It thinks it is important to set free all prisoners to prove good intention form the government. (Al Ahram Al Arabi magazine)

They said about the initiative – second part

   Mr Fahmy Hewedy , the famous Islamic writer and thinker , is talking about the initiative and his personal experience concerning the intervention " Although the aims of the intervention were focused on violence stoppage saving the country of its consequences and preventing Islam from being misbehaved by people , also it assured on applying the law and the constitute and respecting authority , but some suspicions about some people spoiled these seeks in different ways and they are the extremists worldly men and the communists whose shares raised in the conflict between the Islamic people and the authority , so they were keen keeping this conflict continuous and deepening it .

They turned to have profits in keeping this conflict continuing because this guarantees their existence and makes it normal and lawful. The intervention threat ends their existence. Important employees who care for nothing but keeping their posts before saving the country, they think that they only are the people to speak and talk about this issue. This means if the intervention does not go through and by them, it is failure and must be stopped.

The foreign sides which do not want stability in Egypt to use the treasures of the country and make it weak and bust away from their plans and intentions. In addition to this, the media has played a great role which spoiled the process of intervention. Some news papers & magazines made up stories and tales implying that the intervention did not work because of the conditions of the Jama'a , although the committee , before beginning the process of intervention , knew the requests of Jama'a through a message sent by Safwat Abd el Ghani ( a member of Jama'a ) which was dealing with the breaches of policemen towards the members of Jama'a and their families and setting those who were innocent by court free . Out of the prison, the police chiefs used many things to keep them longer for Human rights asked for these requests as well.

The government considered this intervention as a black0mail process towards it, but when they wanted to complete the negotiations about such an initiative the media adopted it and was keen on making it successful. This is an important idea.

The question is about what the state will do with the Jama'a, what are the forms which the state will have to deal with it? What is happing now is like reaching the middle of the road. To complete it you should answer these two questions. If the state closes the gates of violence , it must open the gates of nonviolence lest a new generation will come up asking you ' What happened to the initiative especially that the state wants to without giving .

(Al Ahram Al Arabi) 

Mr Gamal Sultan the general supervisor about the initiative in an article entitled " The feedbacks of the Islamic Group ' Jama'a ' and the feedbacks of the others " He says " In fact the four books cannot be seen as lawful set up of the initiative only , they became a set up to a new phase of the Islamic calling and address which puts the process of Dawaa into its right way in the midst of high profits of nations to protect the nation from the challenges of the realist and the future . It is the security valve of the stead instead of being a reason for conflict and clash with the authority a threat to the Egyptian national security in a very critical time.

The four books, written by leaders who are still in prison which give an impression of direct pressure in them, give the impression of the absence and being not important pressure. They were written in a good style, balanced psychology, scientific knowledge and human knowledge. We should put into mind that these four leaders have already completed the time the sentenced to spend in this late time without human convince and moral satisfaction. "He adds that" There is no doubt that these books and what they included represent a courageous situation from the leaders of Jama'a although the suffered a lot. They had a very bitter experience which had psychological burdens. They were exposed to being cricised by people inside & outside the Jama'a . These books had kept the future role of the Jama'a as being a calling unto Allah movement that participates in developing our Islamic Arabic society in Egypt. This is a positive point. Highlighting the accounts of profits and harms, while revising the feedback of the doctrine, was the most important positive point. Being aware of that will help control the movement of Jama'a. Putting this issue into consideration is a proof of wisdom and psychological health and proves its maturity which ignores the realist and its account which was based on enthusiastic push without realizing harm profits of the society. It is an announcement of entering a new Phase of Islamic development and liberty.

He spoke about the responsibility of Jama'a and the one of state towards the initiative " The feedback of Jama'a which was described as being brave to criticize it self should be completed and made successful by feedbacks of the chiefs of the ' Political system ' who should have the courage to confess their mistakes dealing with that calamity " he explained his opinions about the return of Jama'a to its main message , guiding people , by saying " This means that Jama'a desires to return to its main purpose of guiding people" .

He also attacks some people of the left side (opponents) especially the communists who refused the initiative " The worldly men, especially the communists, who do not care about nothing but their own profits want to retire symbols to achieve the national security and their profits beginning with spurring copts on Egypt and Egyptians to spurring the Political system and its security authorities on the Islamic youth. They kept the fire going on between the sides fighting. When the nation regains its awareness and the stability spreads over the country, these corrupted symbols will disappear because they do not live except in dark and dirty places. I am sure that the biggest number of these peoples from the left side (opponents) dislikes these people who catch into trouble water. These people who are corrupted own some media which gives them size larger than their own".

He finished to say well about the role of the security department which dealt well with the changes inside the Jama'a , especially the conditions which surrounded publishing the four books and the declarations of the leaders of Jama'a which were aware and reasonable and balanced . They were away from insulting others. No doubt that this positive role will en courage others to reopen the old files to revise and assess its movement. When Jama'a says that this initiative is unconditioned or related to setting free other members from the prison, it is a moral duty from the state to take positive steps the penalty sentence. There is no reason to keep them in prison after spending the maximum period allowed by the Egyptian law (25 years).

No doubt that setting them free will spread a lovely atmosphere between the Islamic youth. 

This will help them relax and ends their worry. We should solve the problem of thousands of people in concentration camps because keeping them for years without trials is lawful

Mr Mahmoud Mahdi (the manager of the religions section in Al-Ahram) wrote about the Islamic Jama'a and getting back to the right path.

"This desired return to the right path will put "Allah wills" an end to thee violence acts and killing and extremism which terrified the society and killed innocent without being guilty. It is a return which pleased millions of people who are jealous about their religion and who are religion of peace and love as our great prophet (PBUH) said " The Muslim is the on whom other Muslims feel safe from his hand and tongue " Hadith . It also made all the Egyptians happy of security. We think that this return is a true one and a sincere one. Our speech is a welcome speech to those who returned as they are included in the preferred wisdom "Believer always re-thinks".

The believer likes to return to the right once he realizes it. It is also a greeting speech to Mr Makram Mohammed Ahmed who published this return in Al – Mosawer Magazine which he is the manager of its editing. A greeting to those who encourages this blessing step which was taken by people who are sons of our great Egypt and the greatest nation of all nations, the Islamic nation.

Mr Makram Mohammed Ahmed says " No doubt that everyone who is jealous about his religion and loves his country is happy with the return of Jama'a to the right way through their initiative for violence stoppage and correcting the concepts which they believed in wrongly . When Jama'a saw the right way, they went back to it. It is a blessing return which we ask Allah to help and make it steady.

The Jama'a has retired its section of military acts as its leader, Karam Zohdi, declared. He told Mr Makram, in an article in Al Mosawer Magazine that the initiative for violence stoppage is a strategical one and a permanent reconciliation not a temporary one.

To think well of the jama'a and to encourage it to make thin initiative work, will be a good tiding to the country and Muslims. It will cause them to be safe enjoying stability, good and security "Al Ahram

Dr Essam Al Eyran says "When answers the interviewer's questions about the posibilty of Jama'a's undertaking to this role ".

First we should welcome, as being Egyptian and Muslims, any attempt to stop violence or the political concentration or any attempt to give up fighting. The Jama'a should have done their activities freely in the society as we need their efforts to help the nation develop. (Al Watan Magazine).

Dr/ Abdel Azim Al Matany at Al Azhar University.

What Jama'a wrote in the declaration proves that there is a positive change in their thoughts through a strong reason from jurspendence.

Al Lewaa Al – Eslami  Magazine

Dr Abd el Sabour Shahin

I believe in their sincere intention and the ability of policemen to observe them "he added also that he predicted the initiative to be accepted and dealt with positively because there were people who did not want to set the conflict between the community and its youth.

Dr Mohammed Kamal "The submission to the right when it becomes clear is an honour to the one who submits. Criticizing oneself is a good thing. As being Muslims believing in reconciliation with Muslims, There are some people who do not want the profit of this country because the are moment at the history on nation when it is necessary to unite and gather.

Dr Essam Al- Eyran , one of the leaders of " Muslim Brothers Jama'a in Egypt says "  "The feedback of Jama'a was done by themselves without the government interfering . We should welcome any attempt which seek to setting the people inside prisons free"
