Also generally speaking about when he says monopolizing the truth i think hes referring to the point that within the sacred Texts there are passages which are either mutashabihat which no one has a conclusive explanation of or there are passages which are interpreted by the scholors differently. So Even the Ayats of Quran, few are interpreted by the rightly guided ulema in different ways and none has claim that my interpretation is exactly what Allah means. And even in the rulings of Fiqh, the fuqaha interpret things differently , even the words of RasoolAllah S,W are interpreted a little differently by the jurist. Hence each does their ijtihad or deduces a ruling, but never ever do they say that my deduction is the ultimate truth and that is exactly what Allah had intended and it is exactly what Prophet S.W has intended and there is no other room. So such types of claims no one has ever made. Somethings are crystal clear and there is no room for discussion and then there are certain things on which scholors differ. And that is what he is trying to say that we cannot monopolize.
Even regarding kuffar, the Scholors of Aqeeda from the maturidi school and ashari school have different views on how Allah will Judge different types of Kuffar. Hence the fact that we cannot even say with definitive about a particular Kafir how Allah will judge him .we only have a general ruling about the end of a kafir,But scholors have talked about what can happen differently is a kafir was in a certain state or his experience was in a certain way then how will Allah judge him. So the ultimate truth will open on the Day of judgement. How many things we believe to be in certain way, but on that Day Allah will reveal the reality about things and veils will be taken away. Ultimate truth about things will be established with surety on that day. Allah knows best.
