The Ruling on Swearing an Oath on the Mushaf
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: The practice of swearing an oath on the mushaf has become widespread among many people, and it is given great importance and reverence. Is it true that swearing on the mushaf has more importance than a simple oath?
Answer:
There is no basis for swearing an oath on the mushaf. The mushaf is not a place for taking oaths. This is not permissible; it is a bid'ah (religious innovation). We are taking the mushaf as a ring. Only some of the common people do this. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
