Question:
Some sellers do not sell anything without swearing an oath over it?
Answer:
It is not permissible, just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade it. It is not permissible to swear oaths in buying and selling. In the hadith:Sahih Muslim 108a The hadith includes: One should be cautious regarding oaths. Allah says: [Al-Ma'idah: 89] But if the oath is to affirm good, call to good, or warn against evil, then there is no harm.

Three are the persons with whom Allah would neither speak
ثلاث لا يكلمهم الله..And a man who made his trade such that he does not sell except with an oath and does not buy except with an oath
ورجل جعل الله بضاعته لا يبيع إلا بيمينه ولا يشتري إلا بيمينهAnd keep your oaths
وَاحْفَظُوا أَيْمَانَكُمْ
