Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a person says “your trust” or “a trust” or “in your pledge,” is this considered an oath by other than Allah?
Answer:
If he says “and the trust,” then this is an oath, or “the trust,” or “a trust,” this is based on the intention of swearing, because the letter “waw” is implied in it, and the particle of oath is implied, and the particle of oath is sometimes omitted in the chapter of concision. So there is no doubt that this is an oath, whether the “waw” is mentioned or implied. As for “in your pledge,” this is not an oath, because it does not contain any of the particles of oath. Yes.
