Also attributed to him:
54- “Whoever possesses beneficial knowledge and conceals it from the Muslims, Allah will bridle him [on the Day of Resurrection] * with a bridle of fire.”
This meaning is attested in the Sunan collections**, which report that the Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) said: “Whoever is asked about knowledge he possesses and conceals it, Allah will bridle him on the Day of Resurrection with a bridle of fire.”

ومنها: ٥٤- «مَنْ عَلِمَ عِلْمًا نَافِعًا وَأَخْفَاهُ عَنِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ أَلْجَمَهُ اللهُ [يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ] * بِلِجَامٍ مِنْ نَارٍ» .
هذا معناه معروف من السنن** عن النبي ﷺ أنه قال: «مَنْ سُئِلَ عَنْ عِلْمٍ يَعْلَمُهُ فَكَتَمَهُ أَلْجَمَهُ اللهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ بِلِجَامٍ مِنْ نَارٍ» .
