Chapter on the Severity of a False Oath and Its Magnification on the Pulpit of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him)
Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 5327 — on the Severity of a False Oath
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ أَشْهَدُ لَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ أَوْ أَمَةٍ يَحْلِفُ عِنْدَ هَذَا الْمِنْبَرِ عَلَى يَمِينٍ آثِمَةٍ وَلَوْ عَلَى سِوَاكٍ رَطْبٍ إِلَّا وَجَبَتْ لَهُ النَّارُ
Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, he says: I bear witness that I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: Whoever, man or woman, swears a false oath by this pulpit of mine, even if he is swearing by a green miswak, the Fire will become obligatory for him.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … In order to establish its greater sanctity, the Noble Prophet’s (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) pulpit was designated specifically, because it is the most honored place. As narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (radi Allahu anhu), the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: “The space between my house and my pulpit is a garden from the gardens of Paradise, and my pulpit will be upon my cistern (hawd).” (Sahih al-Bukhari: 7335, Sahih Muslim: 3191)
