Swearing by Allah (Mighty and Majestic)
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
We want to know the criterion for the swearing by Allah (Mighty and Majestic) mentioned in the hadith, and is it permissible in all cases?
Swearing by Allah is only for the certainty, faith, belief, and attachment of a person to Allah; not everyone who swears by Allah will have their oath fulfilled;Because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: (Indeed, among My servants is one who, if he were to swear by Me, I would fulfill it), and the swearing that is motivated by self-admiration and pride in one's deeds is something Allah will never fulfill; rather, the opposite is the case,This is why it was said to the one who saw a person being extravagant with himself and said: and [one says], "Allah will not forgive so-and-so,"Allah said to him: (Who is the one who swears by Me that I will not forgive so-and-so? I have already forgiven him and invalidated your deed).
