Oath by the phrase: "By the Lord of the Mushaf"

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, regarding the statement "by the Lord of the mushaf," does this count as an oath? And does it make the speaker one of those who say that the Qur'an is created?

Answer:
One does not say "By the Lord of the Mushaf." One says "By the Mushaf," or "By the Qur'an," or "By such-and-such a surah," and one does not say "By the Lord of..." because this phrase has no basis in the texts and is misleading. Since this wording is misleading, the Muslim should avoid it.
