Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is this disagreement among the scholars (may Allah have mercy on them) regarding the issue of swearing by the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) valid and worthy of consideration, or is it a disagreement that is not taken into account? It is a weak disagreement, or rather, it is a weak disagreement.
Answer:
So it is not followed, and one does not swear by the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) or by anyone else. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih al-Bukhari 2679 He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Riyad as-Salihin 1711 And this is general, so the disagreement regarding swearing by the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is not considered. This is an exercise of independent legal reasoning (ijtihad) for which there is no evidence. Yes.

Answer:
So it is not followed, and one does not swear by the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) or by anyone else. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Whoever has to take an oath should swear by Allah or remain silent.
من كان حالفا فليحلف بالله او ليصمت.He who swears by anyone or anything other than Allah, has indeed committed an act of Kufr or Shirk
من حلف بغير الله فقد كفر او اشرك
