In the words of the Promised Messiah^as

“The primary purpose of this Convention is to enable every sincere individual to personally experience religious benefits; They may enhance their knowledge and –due to their being blessed and enabled by Allah, The Exalted- their perception [of Allah] may progress. Among its secondary benefits is that this congregational meeting together will promote mutual introduction among all brothers, and it will strengthen the fraternal ties within this Community” (Ishtihar 7 Dec. 1892, Majmoo`ah Ishtiharat Vol. I, Page 340)
