Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
All right, Honorable Shaykh, there are phrases like "It is in my pledge" and "I did not lie to Allah that I will do such and such." Are these phrases religiously valid?

Answer:
"I did not lie to Allah"—the "to Allah" is omitted; one says, "I did not lie that I will obtain such and such." As for "It is in my pledge," this means committing oneself or acknowledging that one has a debt to so-and-so or a right owed to so-and-so. Yes.
