Jami at-Tirmidhi 1535 (Book 20, Hadith 13) #27135
Swearing by Other Than Allah

SUMMARY: The hadith is about not swearing by anything other than Allah, as it is considered disbelief or shirk.

Narrated Sa'd bin 'Ubaidah: That Ibn 'Umar heard a man saying: "No by the Ka'bah" so Ibn 'Umar said: "Nothing is sworn by other than Allah, for I heard the Messenger of Allah say: 'Whoever swears by other than Allah, he has committed disbelief or shirk'."
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ الأَحْمَرُ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدَةَ، أَنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَ، سَمِعَ رَجُلاً، يَقُولُ لاَ وَالْكَعْبَةِ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ لاَ يُحْلَفُ بِغَيْرِ اللَّهِ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ ‏"‏ مَنْ حَلَفَ بِغَيْرِ اللَّهِ فَقَدْ كَفَرَ أَوْ أَشْرَكَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ ‏.‏ وَفُسِّرَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ عِنْدَ بَعْضِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ أَنَّ قَوْلَهُ ‏"‏ فَقَدْ كَفَرَ أَوْ أَشْرَكَ ‏"‏ عَلَى التَّغْلِيظِ ‏.‏ وَالْحُجَّةُ فِي ذَلِكَ حَدِيثُ ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ سَمِعَ عُمَرَ يَقُولُ وَأَبِي وَأَبِي ‏.‏ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ أَلاَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَنْهَاكُمْ أَنْ تَحْلِفُوا بِآبَائِكُمْ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَحَدِيثُ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ ‏"‏ مَنْ قَالَ فِي حَلِفِهِ وَاللاَّتِ وَالْعُزَّى فَلْيَقُلْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا مِثْلُ مَا رُوِيَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ ‏"‏ إِنَّ الرِّيَاءَ شِرْكٌ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَقَدْ فَسَّرَ بَعْضُ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ هَذِهِ الآيَة ‏:‏ ‏(‏ وَمَنْ كَانَ يَرْجُو لِقَاءَ رَبِّهِ فَلْيَعْمَلْ عَمَلاً صَالِحًا ‏)‏ الآيَةَ قَالَ لاَ يُرَائِي

QUICK LESSONS:
Only swear on the name of God alone .

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith teaches us that we should only swear by Allah and not by anything else. It was narrated that Sa'd bin 'Ubaidah heard a man saying "No by the Ka'bah" so Ibn 'Umar said "Nothing is sworn by other than Allah". This means that swearing or taking an oath on something other than Allah is considered disbelief or shirk in Islam. We should always remember to only swear on the name of Allah and nothing else as it shows our faith in Him alone.
