Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: I heard someone say that among the evidence for the permissibility of swearing by the attributes of Allah is the statement of Iblis:
By your might, I will surely mislead them allفَبِعِزَّتِكَ لَأُغْوِيَنَّهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ
[Sad 38:82]
Is this argument correct?

Answer:
He is following Iblis? Is that what you are saying? Yes.
