The ruling on swearing by the mushaf
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, I seek Allah's forgiveness. What is the ruling on the one who says, "By the mushaf"? And is there a difference between saying that and saying, "By the Lord of the mushaf"?
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with it. Swearing by the Qur'an is permissible. If one swears by the Qur'an, or by a surah from it, or by a verse from it, or by what is in the mushaf, which is the Qur'an, there is nothing wrong with that, because it is the speech of Allah, an attribute of His attributes (Glorified and Exalted is He).
