Refuting the Criticism of Scholars for Not Understanding Reality and Consequences

Question:
Some people criticize the scholars, saying that the scholars do not understand reality and do not grasp the consequences. The scholars, praise be to Allah, have clarified, advised, and made things clear for the people. If the scholars do not know the outcomes, then who knows them? This person who is making the claim?

Answer:
First of all, no one knows the outcomes except Allah. But we draw inferences from what happened in previous times and take a lesson from it.
We take a lesson from it. Just as the outcome for our predecessors, when they stood firm on their religion and employed calmness and dignity, was a good one. The outcome has causes; it has causes. A good outcome has causes. As for chaos, recklessness, and noise, this accomplishes nothing. This is what the enemy and the agents of the enemy want. They want anxiety for the Muslims. They want to spread terror. They want chaos. This is what they want from these demonstrations. And we disavow Allah of them, of those who called for them, and of those who permitted them. Yes.
