The permissibility of swearing by the phrase "By the Lord of the Ka'bah"

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Is it permissible to swear by saying "By the Lord of the Ka'bah"?

Answer:
Yes. The Ka'bah is Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Allah is the Lord of everything; He is the Lord of the Ka'bah and the Lord of everything else. The Ka'bah is a created thing, a house among the houses of Allah, and He is its Lord. Therefore, this house has a Lord who protects it.
