The ruling on saying "in my guarantee" when formalizing a contract

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The phrase "in my guarantee" used by some people when formalizing a contract: what is its ruling?

Answer:
This is not permissible. Saying "in my guarantee" is not permissible because it resembles an oath, for it resembles an oath, except that he used "in" which serves as a substitute for the preposition of swearing. This resembles an oath, and he may have intended an oath by it. He should avoid this wording. Yes.
