“Therefore you will find many examples of this where tashbeeh (i.e.

comaparision/analogy) is only
between a single quality where objective is to assimilate mushabah (i.e. compared with) and mushaba
bihi (i.e. compared to). And where there is no intention to compare other things. In this place (meaning
in statement of Hifz ul-Iman) it is absolutely not possible that quantity of knowledge of Ghuyub are
being compared because he himself says that all knowledges relating to Prophet-hood were all held by
RasoolAllah (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam). And these things (of knowledge) are not for Zaid,
Umar, Bakr, and others. In here word itna (i.e. this-much) has not been employed. In fact comparision
(in Hifz ul-Iman) is in baazi’at (i.e. limitedness) because if from qull (all) Ghayb even one thing is
omitted even that would be baaz.” [Ref: Shahab as-Saqib, by Shaykh Hussain Ahmad Madni, Page
282/283]
