The Ruling on Swearing by the Mushaf
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it prescribed to swear by the mushaf or by the rank of the surahs?
Answer:
The mushaf contains leather and… [garbled]… and it has margins, and it contains things by which one swears. However, one swears by the Qur'an or by a verse from the Qur'an, not by the mushaf, because the mushaf contains leather and human work; its writing contains ink and dye. Yes, it contains something created, and it contains the words of Allah, and it contains things from the work of the created. So one does not swear by the mushaf. Yes. One swears by the Qur'an or by a verse or by a surah. Yes.
