Question:
The questioner asks: What is the ruling on saying "by my life" or "by your life" when taking an oath?

This is not an oath. It has become a common expression used nowadays, not an oath intended as such. It is an Arabic idiom, and there is no harm in it. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
