The Meaning of "Tahqiqan, Not Ta'liqan" in the Supplication for Victory

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. I heard that Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah (may Allah have mercy on him), when he was with the Muslim army in their war against the Tatars, was promising them victory. They would say to him, "Say, 'if Allah wills,'" and he would say, "Tahqiqan, not ta'liqan." What is the meaning of this phrase?

Answer:
This falls under the category of supplication, because Shaykh al-Islam was seeking victory through supplication. So it is a matter of supplication and having good expectations of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). Yes.
