Sunan An-Nasa`i : 3797
أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، وَقُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عُمَرَ مَرَّةً وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: وَأَبِي، وَأَبِي. فَقَالَ: إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَنْهَاكُمْ أَنْ تَحْلِفُوا بِآبَائِكُمْ ، فَوَاللَّهِ مَا حَلَفْتُ بِهَا بَعْدُ ذَاكِرًا، وَلَا آثِرًا.
It was narrated from Salim, from his father, that on one occasion the Prophet heard 'Umar saying: By my father and by my mother. He said: Allah forbids you to swear by your forefathers. 'Umar said: By Allah, I never swore by them again, whether saying it for myself or reporting it of others.
