Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, you mentioned (may Allah preserve you) that it is permissible to swear by Allah's attributes, such as "I swear by Allah's face" or "by Allah's life." Is this without restriction? Or are there attributes by which one does not swear? Does one swear by the attribute of the leg of Allah, and likewise the hand and similar attributes?

Answer:
One swears by every attribute of Allah that is established, and by every name and attribute of Allah that is established, without limitation. Yes.
