The ruling on seeking help from Allah in an oath

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If he says, "I say, the tribe of the Shaykh," is it obligatory for any of us to judge Allah by the goodness of the people, and what is the ruling on the form of the people?

Answer:
No, if seeking help from Allah is in the category of judging by the presumption of good, then there is no harm in that. As the scholars mentioned, and as in His saying
Then Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Among Allah's Worshippers there are some who, if they took Allah's Oath (for something), Allah fulfill their oaths."صلى الله عليه وسلم إِنَّ مِنْ عِبَادِ اللَّهِ مَنْ لَوْ أَقْسَمَ عَلَى اللَّهِ لأَبَرَّهُ
Sahih al-Bukhari 4500
