The answer

The author of "Awn al-Ma'bud" in his commentary on the "and with it its like" in Sunan Abi Dawud, mentioned that what is meant by "and with it its like" is the inner, unrecited revelation, or the interpretation and clarification of the apparent revelation through generalization, specification, addition, and omission, or rulings, admonitions, and parables that are similar to the Quran in terms of the obligation to act upon them or their magnitude. He also quoted Al-Bayhaqi as supporting this.
