Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) as saying: Allah, the Great and Majestic, forbids you to swear by your fathers. Umar رضی اللہ عنہ said: By Allah. I have never sworn (by my father) since I heard Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) forbidding it mentioning them on my behalf nor on behalf of someone else.

I did not take oath by (anyone else except Allah) since I heard Allah's Messenger forbidding it. nor did I speak in such terms, and the narrator did not say, on my own behalf or on behalf of someone else .

Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) heard 'Umar رضی اللہ عنہ while he was taking oath by his father. The rest of the hadith is the same.

Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) found, Umar bin al-Khattab رضی اللہ عنہ amongst the riders and he was taking oath by his father Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) called them (saying); Our Allah, the Exated and Majestic, has forbidden you that you take oath by your father. He who bag to take an oath, he must take it by Allah or keep quiet.

This hadith is narrated on the authority of Ibn Umar رضی اللہ عنہ through another chain of transmitters.

He who has to take an oath, he must not take oath but by Allah. The Quraish used to take oath by their fathers. So he (the Holy Prophet ﷺ) said: Do not take oath by your fathers.

Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) as saying: He who takes an oath in the course of which he says: By Lat (and al-'Uzza), he should say: There is no god but Allah; and that if anyone says to his friend: Come and I will gamble with you, he should pay sadaqa.

It was narrated from Az-zuhri with this chain (a hadith similar to no. 4260), and the hadith of Ma'mar is like the Hadith of Yunus, except that he said: "Let him give something in charity." In the hadith of Al-Awza'iit say: "Whoever swears by al-Lat aand -Uzza." Abu Al-Hussain Muslim said: This phrase meaning: "Come, I will gamble with you" - was not narrated by anyone except Az-Zuhri had approximately ninety phrases which he narrated from prophet ﷺ and no one else narrated them with any reliable chaain of narrators.

Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) as saying: Do not swear by idols, nor by your fathers.

I came to Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) along with a group of Ash'arites requesting to give us a mount. He (the Holy Prophet ﷺ) said: By Allah, I cannot provide you with a mount, and there is nothing with me which I should give you as a ride. He (the narrator) said: We stayed there as long as Allah willed. Then there were brought to him (to the Holy Prophet ﷺ) camels. He (the Holy Prophet ﷺ) then ordered to give us three white humped camels, We started and said (or some of us said to the others): Allah will not bless us. We came to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) begging him to provide us with riding camels. He swore that he could not provide us with a mount, but later on he provided us with that. They (some of the Prophet's Companions) came and informed him about this (rankling of theirs), whereupon he said: It was not I who provided you with a mount, but Allah has provided you with that. So far as I am concerned, by Allah, if He so wills, I would not swear, but if, later on, I would see better than it, I (would break the vow) and expiate it and do that which is better.

My friends sent me to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) asking him to provide them with mounts as they were going along with him in jaish al-'Usrah (the army of destitutes or of meagre means or army setting out during the hard times and that is the occasion of the expedition of Tabuk) I said: Apostle of Allah, my friends have sent me to you so that you may provide them with mounts. He (the Holy Prophet ﷺ) said: By Allah, I cannot provide you with anything to ride. And it so happened that he was at that time much perturbed. I little knew of it, so I came back with a heavy heart on account of the refusal of Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌), and the fear that Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) might have some feelings against me. I returned to my friends and informed them about what Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) had said. I had hardly stayed for a little that I heard Bilal رضی اللہ عنہ calling: 'Abdullah bin Qais. I responded to his call. He said: Hasten to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌), he is calling you, When I came to the Prophet ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) he said: Take this pair, this pair, and this pair (i.e. six camels which he had bought from Sa'd رضی اللہ عنہ), and take them to y, our friends and say: Verily Allah (or he said: Verily Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) has provided you with these animals. So ride upon them. Abu Musa رضی اللہ عنہ said: I went along with them to my friends and said: Verily Allah's messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) has provided you with these animals for riding; but by Allah, I shall not leave you until some of you go along with me to him who had heard the talk of Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) then I asked him for you, and his refusal for the first time, and then his granting them to me subsequently; so you should not think that I narrated to you something which he did not say. They said to me: By Allah, in our opinion you are certainly truthful, and we would do as you like. So Abu Musa رضی اللہ عنہ went along with some of the men from them until they came to those who had heard the words of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and his refusal to (provide) them with (animals) ; and subsequently his granting (the animals) to them; and they narrated to them exactly as Abu Masa رضی اللہ عنہ had narrated to them.

We were sitting in the company of Abu Musa رضی اللہ عنہ that he called for food and it consisted of flesh of fowl. It was then that a person from Banu Tamim visited him. His complexion was red having the resemblance of a slave. He said to him: Come and (join me in food). He showed reluctance. He (Abu Masa رضی اللہ عنہ) said: Come on, for I saw Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) eating it (fowl's meat), whereupon that person said: I saw it eating something (of filth and rubbish) and I found it repugnant and took an oath that I would never eat that. He (Abu Muds) said: Come, so that I would narrate to you about that (the incident pertaining to vow). (And he narrated thus): I came to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) along with a group of people belonging to the tribe of Ash'ari, asking him to provide us with riding camels. He (the Holy Prophet ﷺ) said: By Allah, I cannot provide you with riding animals. And there is nothing with me with which I can provide you a mount. We stayed (for some time) there as Allah willed, and there was brought to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) booty of camels. He called us and commanded that we should be given five white humped camels. As we were about to go back, some of us said to the other: As we made Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) forget oath, there would be no blessing for us (in his gift). We went back to him and said: Allah's Messenger ﷺ, we came to you to provide us with riding animals and you took an oath that you would never equip us with mounts and then you have provided us with the riding beasts Allah's Messenger ﷺ, have you forgotten? Thereupon he said: I swear by Allah that if Allah so wills, I shall not swear an oath, and then consider something else to be better than it without making atonement for my oath and doing the thing that is better. So you go; Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, has given you riding animals.

"There was love and brotherhood between this clan of Jarm and the Ash'ari رضی اللہ عنہ and some food containing chicken was brought to him... and he narrated some similar (as Hadith no. 4265).

Zahdam al-Jarmi reported: We were in the company of Abu Musa. The rest of the hadith is the same.

I visited Abu Musa رضی اللہ عنہ and lie was eating fowl's meat. The rest of the hadith is the same with this addition that he (the Holy Prophet) said: By Allah, I did not forget it.

We came to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) requesting him to provide us with riding camels. He (the Holy Prophet ﷺ) said: There is nothing with me with which I should equip you. By Allah, I would not provide you with (riding camels). Then Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) sent to us three camels with spotted bumps. We said: We came to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) asking him to equip us with riding animals. He took an oath that he could not equip us. We came to him and informed him. He said: By Allah, I do not take an oath, but when I find the other thing better than that, I do that which is better.

We walked on foot and came to Allah's Apostle (may peace he upon him) asking him to provide us with mounts. The rest of the hadith is the same.

A person sat late in the night with Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌), and then came to his family and found that his children had gone to sleep. His wife brought food for him. but he took an oath that he would not eat because of his children (having gone to sleep without food) He then gave precedence (of breaking the vow and then expiating it) and ate the food He then came to Allah s Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) and made mention of that to him, whereupon Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said: He who took an oath and (later on) found something better than that should do that, and expiate for (breaking) his vow.

Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌ ) as saying: He who took an oath and then found another thing better than (this) should expiate for the oath (broken) by him and do (the better thing).

Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) as saying: He who took an oath and (later on) found another thing better than that, he should do that which is better, and expiate for the vow (broken by him).
