He stated that the existence of 80,000 mosques in the country is a valuable capacity for public participation and mobilization in solving issues, saying: "We cannot and should not be indifferent to the problems of the people."
The Necessity of Energy Conservation
Pezeshkian emphasized the necessity of saving and managing fuel and energy consumption, referring to the problems created for gas production in Iran due to military aggression by enemies.

Solidarity Between People and Government in Crises
The President, in this meeting, referred to the problems arising from sanctions and economic blockade, stating that the government alone cannot solve all these issues. He said: "If the people cooperate and help, we can thwart the plots and evil plans of the enemies." Pezeshkian believes that the spirit prevailing in society during the imposed war can serve as a model for solving current problems.
He further added: "We must believe in ourselves and work hand in hand for success and problem-solving with unity and cohesion. It is our duty to solve the problems of the people." He emphasized that mosques should be a model in managing consumption and encouraging people to save.
Pezeshkian also highlighted the importance of collaboration and coordination among cultural, religious, and social institutions to identify and solve people's problems, stating that good and useful actions taken in mosques can be implemented as a model in other mosques across the country. He invited the public to participate in the neighborhood governance plan, noting that "we must overcome problems and, regardless of political divisions, thwart the enemies' plans."
