Does an oath become valid with phrases like "I swear on my honor I will do such and such" or "I swear on my oath I will do such and such"?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good. Is it permissible to use the expressions that some grammarians use when taking an oath, such as saying "I swear on my honor I will do such and such" or "I swear on my oath I will do such and such"?

Answer:
It is not permissible to use this expression because it resembles an oath, because it resembles an oath, and it is a commitment. So if one of them wants to commit, he should say to you, "It is obligatory for me to do such and such," or "By Allah, I will do it" or "I will not do such and such." He should avoid this wording because it is misleading regarding an oath, and some of the common people do not distinguish between the letters of the oath and others. Yes.
