(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
سُفْيَانُ ، عَنِ
الزُّهْرِيِّ ، سَمِعَ
سَالِمًا ، عَنْ
أَبِيهِ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سَمِعَ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، وَهُوَ يَقُولُ : وَأَبِي وَأَبِي ، فَقَالَ : " إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَنْهَاكُمْ أَنْ تَحْلِفُوا بِآبَائِكُمْ " ، قَالَ عُمَرُ : فَوَاللَّهِ ، فَوَاللَّهِ مَا حَلَفْتُ بِهَا ذَاكِرًا وَلَا آثِرًا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that once the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) heard Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) swearing by his father. He said: "Allah Almighty forbids you from swearing oaths by the names of your forefathers. Therefore, when any one of you wants to swear an oath, let him swear by the name of Allah, otherwise let him remain silent." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) says: "After that, I never swore such an oath intentionally or even while quoting someone."
