Is saying “by my life and by your life” considered an oath?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. This questioner asks: What is the ruling on saying “by my life and by your life,” and is it an oath?

Answer:
No, it is not an oath. Its wording is the wording of an oath, but it is not intended as such; one does not intend an oath by it. Yes.
