Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks regarding His saying, the Exalted:
We testify that you are the Messenger of Allahنَشْهَدُ إِنَّكَ لَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ
[Al-Munafiqun 63:1]
We previously discussed with you that the lam is the lam of the oath. Is this lam the lam that slips?

Answer:
I do not know that it is a slipping lam, but this is the lam that confirms the oath. For this reason, He said: "They took their oaths as a shield." Their saying, "We bear witness that you are indeed the Messenger of Allah," is an oath they took as a shield. They took their oaths as a shield. Yes.
