Ibn Hajar commented on this tradition, writing:
الْعُلَمَاءُ الْمُرَادُ هُنَا أَنَّهُ يُخْبِرُ بِمَا عَلِمَهُ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ وَيَسْكُتُ عَمَّا عَلِمَهُ مِنَ الشَّرِّ وَلَا يَكُونُ ذَلِكَ كَذِبًا لِأَنَّ الْكَذِبَ الْإِخْبَارُ بِالشَّيْءِ عَلَى خِلَافِ مَا هُـوَ بِهِ
The scholars said the meaning here is that he reports good things he knows and is silent about bad things. He would not be a liar, since a liar claims something different than it actually is.
