Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Mustafa Muhammad Masri, a resident of the Kingdom, says: Currently, oaths by other than Allah have become widespread. We ask the Honorable Shaykh for guidance on this matter?
Answer:
Yes, oaths by other than Allah are forbidden,[Al-Qalam 68:10]. Frequent swearing indicates lying; the one who swears often indicates that he is a liar. It also indicates that he is lax regarding oaths, that they are easy on his tongue. So, do not swear often by Allah the Exalted, and do not swear except when there is a need, and one must be truthful, fulfilling his oath. Yes.
