96.10 “…(Judge between men) by that which Allah has shown you…”
٩٦۔١٠ باب مَا كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يُسْأَلُ مِمَّا لَمْ يُنْزَلْ عَلَيْهِ الْوَحْىُ فَيَقُولُ: «لاَ أَدْرِي»
[Machine] Or he did not respond until the revelation was sent down to him, and he did not speak based on opinion or analogy regarding Allah's saying, "with what Allah has shown you." Ibn Mas'ud narrated that the Prophet ﷺ was asked about the soul, so he remained silent until the verse was revealed.
أَوْ لَمْ يُجِبْ حَتَّى يُنْزَلَ عَلَيْهِ الْوَحْيُ، وَلَمْ يَقُلْ بِرَأْيٍ وَلاَ بِقِيَاسٍ لِقَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى: {بِمَا أَرَاكَ اللَّهُ}. وَقَالَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ سُئِلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَنِ الرُّوحِ فَسَكَتَ حَتَّى نَزَلَتِ الآيَةُ.
