[Machine] "We swear by Allah that we do not know everything that you ask about. Even if we knew and kept it hidden, there would be no benefit in concealing it from you."  

الدارمي:١١٣أَخْبَرَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْقَاسِمَ سْئلُ قَالَ

«إِنَّا وَاللَّهِ مَا نَعْلَمُ كُلَّ مَا تَسْأَلُونَ عَنْهُ وَلَوْ عَلِمْنَا مَا كَتَمْنَاكُمْ وَلَا حَلَّ لَنَا أَنْ نَكْتُمَكُمْ»
