Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, in many Islamic countries, swearing by other than Allah is common and widespread, such as swearing by the Prophet, by trustworthiness, or by life. I read a book that says all the hadiths describing swearing by other than Allah as shirk are weak, and this caused a stir in the country.
