one does not know, one must likewise speak about what one knows when asked, for Allah Most High says:

“You must make it clear to the people and not conceal it.”

And the hadith transmitted through several chains states:

“Whoever is asked about knowledge and conceals it will be bridled on the Day of Resurrection with a bridle of fire.”

Ibn Jarīr said: Muhammad ibn Bashshār narrated to us: Mu’ammal narrated to us: Sufyān narrated to us, from Abū al-Zinād, who said: Ibn ‘Abbās said: “Quranic interpretation is of four kinds: a kind the Arabs understand through their own language; a kind no one is excused for not knowing; a kind known to the scholars; and a kind known only to Allah.”

And Allah, glorified and exalted is He, knows best.
