Jami at-Tirmidhi 1534 (Book 20, Hadith 12) #27134
Prohibiting Swearing By One's Father

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) prohibited swearing by one's father and instead encouraged people to swear by Allah or remain silent.

Narrated Ibn 'Umar: That the Messenger of Allah came across 'Umar while he was on his mount, and he was swearing by his father. So the Messenger of Allah said: "Verily Allah prohibits you from swearing by your fathers. So let the one who swears, swear by Allah, or be silent".
حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَةُ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَدْرَكَ عُمَرَ وَهُوَ فِي رَكْبٍ وَهُوَ يَحْلِفُ بِأَبِيهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَنْهَاكُمْ أَنْ تَحْلِفُوا بِآبَائِكُمْ لِيَحْلِفْ حَالِفٌ بِاللَّهِ أَوْ لِيَسْكُتْ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ
