Explaining why the message was issued, King Abdullah stated: "[W]e felt that the Islamic message of tolerance was being subjected to a fierce and unjust attack from some in the West who do not understand Islam's essence, and others who claim to be associated with Islam and hide behind Islam to commit irresponsible deeds."<ref>cite web |work=[[The Jerusalem Post]] |url=http://fr.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1150885839539&pagename=JPost/JPArticle/ShowFull |title=King Abdullah calls to end extremism |access-date=2007-08-15</ref>

[[Tony Blair]], while [[Prime Minister of the United Kingdom]], gave a speech in which he praised the Amman message and the gathering of numerous scholars, commenting, "This was a clear message that Islam is not a monolithic faith, but one made up of a rich pattern of diversity, albeit all flowing from the same fount."<ref name="TB"/>


Despite the ecumenical nature of the Amman Message, since it was issued there has been a marked decline in [[Shia-Sunni relations]] as a result of increased sectarian conflict in such countries as Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Bahrain and Yemen.<ref>cite book|editor1-last=Volpi|editor1-first=Frederic|title=Political Civility in the Middle East|date=11 Jun 2014|publisher=Routledge|isbn=9781317977810|page=150<!--|access-date=12 May 2015--></ref>

7. Crone, Patricia. “Nothing but Time Destroys Us”: The Deniers of Resurrection in the Qurʾān.” JIQSA 1 (2016): 127-147.
Suhail Nakhouda, writing in the Amman-based ''[[Islamica Magazine|Islamica]]'', stated that the Amman message did little to effectively address ongoing problems: "There is no water, no pavements; the economy is bad, and many young people are out of work. Peoples' lives, as well as the images they see, stay the same." Nakhouda stated that King Abdullah's message was likely to be dampened by his lifestyle, which he claims is the subject of criticism.<ref name="J47"/>
