The article addresses the danger of generating intellectual debates in environments of hardship and crises. It explains that exceptional circumstances, such as imprisonment and political conflicts, lead to distortions in the understanding of religious texts and the formation of ideas. In such conditions, the process of independent reasoning (ijtihad) is affected by scarcity and psychological turmoil rather than a calm scholarly environment. It emphasizes that correct scholarly effort requires an atmosphere of tranquility and discipline, whereas environments filled with confrontation and unrest weaken scholars’ ability to derive correct judgments. This results in unreliable outcomes, such as relying on texts interpreted according to specific circumstances or shaped by conflict, rather than based on solid scientific research principles. The article warns that this situation impacts both the present and future of the nation and calls for reliance on independent scientific institutions and a healthy environment that fosters calm discussion and scholarly rooting. It concludes that knowledge flourishes and independent reasoning is more balanced when knowledge is separated from emotional agitation.
