Hello. I applied for visitor visa on wednesday via online. I got my LIB next day within 24 hours. And I am going vfs global on monday for fingerprints.
1) How long does it take to get final decision? (I am writing from Turkey)
2) Do they start processing without fingerprints?

That's anyone's guess. Processing time will depend on the specifics of your application.

No

You must give your biometrics for your new application.

Pakistan is one of the 29 countries and 1 territory specified by IRCC for which applicants must give their biometrics again if they apply after July 31, 2018

You most likely got the request for the new biometrics after the visa office checked your identity.

You may want to email the Abu Dhabi visa office to reconfirm about the biometrics + request for the BIL (Biometrics Instruction Letter)
