Question:
Among the questions of this questioner, he says: O His Eminence the Shaykh! What is the ruling on swearing by the Qur'an?
Answer:
The Qur'an is the speech of Allah, and there is nothing wrong with swearing by it. "The speech of Allah" and "the Qur'an" are like saying, "I did not do such and such by the speech of Allah." The Qur'an is the speech of Allah, just as one says, "By Allah," or "By Allah," or "By the knowledge of Allah," or "By the mercy of Allah"—meaning he intends to attach himself to the mercy of the Exalted One—or "By the speech of Allah." All of this is permissible: swearing by Allah and by His attributes.
