Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, some people say, "By your trust, do not do such-and-such." Is this considered an oath or not?

Answer:
This is an oath. "Trust" means that you do not swear such-and-such; this is an oath, except that the letter waw is omitted. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
He is not one of us who swears by trust.ليس منا من حلف بالأمانة
Al-Mustadrak lil-Hakim 40:17
. It is not permissible to swear by trust. Yes.
