Question:
We conclude this session with a phrase that everyone repeats, O Shaykh, and that is the ruling on saying "in my guarantee." Many people say "in my guarantee" when providing a guarantee.
Answer:
If he says this as an admission, "I owe so-and-so such and such a debt or right," then there is nothing wrong with it. But if he intends by this to swear an oath, then the wording is wrong and the meaning is also wrong, because one does not swear except by Allah (Mighty and Majestic). Leave this thing. Yes.
