Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some da'iyah (preachers) make supplications at the end of their lectures and say, "O Allah, I swear by You that You will certainly do such and such," or "I swear by You that You will certainly support," and so on. Is this action prescribed?

Answer:
The default is that it is prescribed, but he has reached a level where he swears by Allah with certainty, and that he swears by Allah. I do not know about his case. Allah knows his state best. Yes.
