3 Ali 'Imran(آل عمران), Ayah 71

يَا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ لِمَ تَلْبِسُونَ الْحَقَّ بِالْبَاطِلِ وَتَكْتُمُونَ الْحَقَّ وَأَنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ 71 ٧١

O People of the Scripture, why do you confuse the truth with falsehood and conceal the truth while you know [it]? (71)

Tafsir

The words in أَنتُمْ تَشْهَدُونَ (70)
you are yourselves a witness and in أَنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ (you know Ali 'Imran 3:71 should not be taken to mean that disbelief will become permissible for them if they do not attest to the truth or have no knowledge about it. This is because kufr (disbelief) is intrinsically an abominable thing to practice. This is prohibited under all conditions. However, the mention of kufr (disbelief) after knowledge and attestation is to increase the impact of reproachment.
