Lesson 104: The Prohibition of Swearing Oaths by Forefathers and the Importance of Being Satisfied with Allah’s Will

104th Lesson from the Book of Tawheed by Shaykhul-Islaam Muhammad bin Abdil-Wahhaab

بســـم اللــه الرحــمــن الـرحـــيــم

By Shaykh, the ‘Allāmah, the Trustworthy Advisor, Abu ‘Abdirrahmān Yahya bin ‘Ali Al-Hajūri – may Allāh preserve him – on the 19th, Shawwaal, 1444H

Chapter: What has come concerning the one who is not content with the swearing an oath by Allaah

From Ibn ‘Umar may Allaah be pleased with them both: That the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ said: 

لاَ تَحْلِفُوا بِآبَائِكُمْ مَنْ حَلَفَ بِاللَّهِ فَلْيَصْدُقْ وَمَنْ حُلِفَ لَهُ بِاللَّهِ فَلْيَرْضَ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَرْضَ بِاللَّهِ فَلَيْسَ مِنَ اللَّهِ

"Do not swear oaths by your forefathers. Whoever swears an oath by Allaah, then let him fulfill it, and if an oath is sworn for a person by Allaah, then let him be satisfied (accept it). And whoever is not satisfied with Allaah has nothing to do with Allaah."

[Reported by Ibn Majah with a Hasan chain]

In it are Masaa’il (topics):

The First: The prohibition of swearing by the forefathers.

The Second: The command to the one whom Allaah is sworn by to, to be satisfied (to accept).

The Third: The threat of the one who is not satisfied (doesn’t accept).
