Kitab At-Tauhid

Writer: Muhammad bin Abdul-Wahhab

64
To swear and to take Oath (binding) upon Allah
It is narrated from Jundub bin Abdullah (May Allah be pleased with him) that Allah's Messenger (May the peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) said:

A man said: 'By Allah! Allah would not forgive such and such (person).' Thereupon Allah the Exalted and Glorious said: 'Who is he who swears about Me that I would not grant pardon to so- and-so? I have granted pardon to so-and-so and blotted out your (the swearer's) deeds.'" (Muslim)

According to another Hadith from Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) the man who said it, was a faithful worshipper. Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) said:

"His one statement destroyed his life in this world and the Hereafter."
