The Ruling on Swearing by One's Honor
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for a person to say in an oath: "By my honor," swearing by his honor to prove that he is truthful?
Answer:
He should not say: "By my honor," or "By my honor." One does not swear by one's honor, nor by one's trustworthiness, nor by the Prophet. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: And he said: Sunan an-Nasa'i 3769Sahih (Darussalam).
So one does not swear by one's trustworthiness, nor by so-and-so's head, nor by the Prophet, nor by the Ka'bah, nor by one's honor, nor by "my honor," nor "by my honor." Some people say "in my honor," but this is not an oath; because this is something in my honor, I am responsible for it.

Answer:
He should not say: "By my honor," or "By my honor." One does not swear by one's honor, nor by one's trustworthiness, nor by the Prophet. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Whoever swears by other than Allah has committed shirk (associating partners with Allah), and whoever is swearing, let him swear by Allah, or let him remain silent.
من حلف بغير الله؛ فقد أشرك، ومن كان حالفًا؛ فليحلف بالله، أو ليصمتSwear only by Allah
لا تحلفوا إلا باللهSo one does not swear by one's trustworthiness, nor by so-and-so's head, nor by the Prophet, nor by the Ka'bah, nor by one's honor, nor by "my honor," nor "by my honor." Some people say "in my honor," but this is not an oath; because this is something in my honor, I am responsible for it.
