حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى ، وَمُسَدَّدٌ ، وَهَذَا حَدِيثُهُ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : "

مَنْ حَلَفَ فَاسْتَثْنَى ، فَإِنْ شَاءَ رَجَعَ ، وَإِنْ شَاءَ تَرَكَ غَيْرَ حِنْثٍ
