Is it considered an oath if one says: "It is a trust with you"?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
It is considered an oath if one says, "It is a trust with you."

Answer:
If one says, "It is a trust with you," it is an oath; because its meaning is "It is a trust," but the letter "waw" was omitted. The Arabs sometimes omit the "waw" for the sake of brevity. If one says "Allah," meaning "It is Allah," then omitting the letter for the sake of brevity is permissible in the Arabic language. Yes.
