Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner asks: Is taking an oath by divorce considered a form of minor shirk (associating partners with Allah), because it is an oath by other than Allah?
Answer:
No, no, it is not shirk, but it resembles an oath because it is conditioned upon something that implies urging it, forbidding it, or affirming or denying it. That is, it resembles an oath but is not an oath. Yes.
