An example of partial ambiguity in the Qur'an

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, I ask you to mention an example from the reading regarding partial ambiguity.

Answer:
Yes, in partial ambiguity, there are the absolute and the qualified, the specific and the general, and the abrogating and the abrogated. This is what is meant by partial ambiguity. The abrogating and the abrogated is a type of ambiguity. The absolute and the qualified is a type of ambiguity where some of it is referred to some of it. For example, in the saying of Allah the Exalted regarding the expiation for zihar, "the freeing of a slave" , this is absolute; any slave, any slave. But in the other verse , they applied the verse on zihar to the verse on the expiation for killing, because it is required that the slave be a believer. This is ambiguity where some of it is referred to some of it, and some of it is explained by some of it.
