The Holy Qur'ān مَا فَرَّطْنَا فِي الكتب مِن شَيْءٍ 274 465. We have not left out anything from the Book. . But I also believe that it is not the function of every Maulavi to set forth from the Holy Qur'ān all religious matters and to expound all its details according to the. Divine design. This is the function especially of those who have been helped with Divine revelation by way of. Prophethood or great saintliness. For those people who not being recipients of revelation are not competent to expound Qur'ānic insights, the only straight way is that without attempting to interpret the Qur'an, they should unhesitatingly accept all the teachings which have been handed down by tradition. Those who are illumined with the light of saintly revelation are included among the purified. Regarding them it is the way of Allāh that from time to time He discloses to them the hidden fine points of the Holy Qur'ān and makes it clear to them that the. Holy Prophet [peace and blessings of Allāh be on him] has not put forth any extra teaching on his own and that the true Aḥadīth only set forth the details of the principles and directives contained in the Holy Qur'an. By being vouchsafed this insight, the miracle of the Holy Qur'ān is manifested to them and the truth of those verses becomes clear to them in which Allāh, the Glorious, says that nothing has been left out from the Holy Qur'an. [al-Haq Mubaḥatha Ludhiāna, Rūḥānī Khazā'in, Vol. 4, pp. 80-81]. The purport of this verse is that: هُوَ الَّذِي بَعَثَ فِي الْأُمَيْنَ رَسُولًا مِّنْهُمْ يَتْلُوا عَلَيْهِمْ أَيْتِهِ وَيُزَكِّيهِمْ 274 al-An'ām, 6:39 [Publisher]
