Sahih Muslim 1646

Sahih Muslim · Book 27: The Book of Oaths · The prohibition of swearing by something other than Allah

Ibn 'Umar heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:

وَحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى ، وَيَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ ، وَقُتَيْبَةُ ، وَابْنُ، حُجْرٍ قَالَ يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى أَخْبَرَنَا وَقَالَ الآخَرُونَ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، - وَهُوَ ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ - عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ ابْنَ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ مَنْ كَانَ حَالِفًا فَلاَ يَحْلِفْ إِلاَّ بِاللَّهِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَكَانَتْ قُرَيْشٌ تَحْلِفُ بِآبَائِهَا فَقَالَ ‏"‏ لاَ تَحْلِفُوا بِآبَائِكُمْ ‏" ‏ ‏.‏

He who has to take an oath, he must not take oath but by Allah. The Quraish used to take oath by their fathers. So he (the Holy Prophet) said: Do not take oath by your fathers.
