Is it permissible to swear by the life of Allah?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner asks: What is the ruling on these phrases, "By the life of Allah"?

Answer:
"By the life of Allah." "By the life." This is an oath. It is permissible to swear by the life of Allah, because the life of Allah is one of His attributes, and it is permissible to swear by it just as one swears by His other attributes.
