room for doubt
Space for questioning
Room for doubt is the possibility that something might not be true or certain.
When evidence is incomplete or arguments are unconvincing, there's room for doubt about the conclusion: The alibi left room for doubt about his innocence.
To leave no room for doubt is to establish something conclusively.
