ثم فوق المشكل المجمل، وهو ما احتمل وجوها فصار مجالا لا يوقف على المراد به إلا ببيان من قبل المتكلم.
Beyond mushkil lies mujmal: the expression permits several possibilities, and the speaker’s clarification is needed to establish which is intended.
وَحَرَّمَ الرِّبَا
And God prohibited ribā.
The prohibition is evident, but identifying all its operative legal forms and limits requires authoritative elaboration beyond an ordinary lexical gloss. Likewise, recognizing that prayer is commanded does not on its own specify its full prescribed performance.
Rule: without the requisite explanation, one should not treat a selected possibility as conclusively intended. Once the clarification is supplied, it governs application.
