Al-Ma'idah 101

يَٓا اَيُّهَا الَّذ۪ينَ اٰمَنُوا لَا تَسْـَٔلُوا عَنْ اَشْيَٓاءَ اِنْ تُبْدَ لَكُمْ تَسُؤْكُمْۚ وَاِنْ تَسْـَٔلُوا عَنْهَا ح۪ينَ يُنَزَّلُ الْقُرْاٰنُ تُبْدَ لَكُمْۜ عَفَا اللّٰهُ عَنْهَاۜ وَاللّٰهُ غَفُورٌ حَل۪يمٌ ۝١٠١

101O you who believe! Do not keep asking about things which, if they were made plain to you, would displease you. If you ask about them while the Quran is being sent down, they will be made plain to you. (Since they have not been made plain,) Allah has exempted you from them. For Allah is most forgiving and does not hasten to punish.
