He (asws) said: ‘Yes, by Allah (azwj), they had denied him (saww) with an intense denial, but it was hidden. (The meaning of) “but surely they do not call you a liar” is that ‘they would not be able to come up with the refutation in order to belie your (saww) truth’’. صحيح - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (16/106)) يخرجه - Shaykh Baqir al-Behbudi (Sahih al-Kafi)
