Hazrat Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) came to Hazrat Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), who was with a few horsemen. At that time, Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) was swearing by his father. Upon this, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) called out to him and said, "Be aware! Surely Allah the Pure forbids you from swearing by your forefathers. So if anyone must swear, let him swear by Allah, otherwise he should remain silent."
