Bayhaqi 19930 — The one swearing pauses briefly between his oath

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ، أنبأ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ، ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ، أنبأ ابْنُ بِشْرٍ، عَنْ مِسْعَرٍ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ يَرْفَعُهُ قَالَ: " وَاللهِ لَأَغْزُوَنَّ قُرَيْشًا "، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ "، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " وَاللهِ لَأَغْزُوَنَّ قُرَيْشًا، إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ "، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " وَاللهِ لَأَغْزُوَنَّ قُرَيْشًا "، ثُمَّ سَكَتَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ "، قَالَ الشَّيْخُ: يُحْتَمَلُ أَنْ يَكُونَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - إِنْ صَحَّ هَذَا - لَمْ يَقْصِدْ رَدَّ الِاسْتِثْنَاءِ إِلَى الْيَمِينِ، وَإِنَّمَا قَالَ ذَلِكَ لِقَوْلِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ {وَلَا تَقُولَنَّ لِشَيْءٍ إِنِّي فَاعِلٌ ذَلِكَ غَدًا إِلَّا أَنْ يَشَاءَ اللهُ} [الكهف: ٢٤].
Ikrimah (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates as marfu' that he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "By Allah, I will surely make an expedition against Quraysh." Then he said: "In sha' Allah." Then he said: "By Allah, I will surely make an expedition against Quraysh, in sha' Allah." Then he said: "By Allah, I will surely make an expedition against Quraysh." Then he remained silent, then said: "In sha' Allah."
The Shaykh said: It is possible — if this is authentic — that he (peace and blessings be upon him) did not intend to attach the exception to the oath, but said it only because of Allah's words: "And never say of anything, 'I will do that tomorrow,' except (with the words), 'If Allah wills'" [Surah al-Kahf: 23-24].
