Chapter: Intentionally Swearing A False Oath.

باب فِيمَنْ يَحْلِفُ كَاذِبًا مُتَعَمِّدًا

English narration

Narrated by عبد الله بن العباس القرشي

Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: Two men brought their dispute to the Prophet ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ asked the plaintiff to produce evidence, but he had no evidence. So he asked the defendant to swear. He swore by Allah "There is no god but He. " The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Yes, you have done it, but you have been forgiven for the sincerity of the statement: "There is no god but Allah. " Abu Dawud said: This tradition means that he did not command him to make atonement

النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَطَاءُ بْنُ السَّائِبِ ، عَنْ أَبِي يَحْيَى ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ : "

أَنَّ رَجُلَيْنِ اخْتَصَمَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَسَأَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الطَّالِبَ الْبَيِّنَةَ ، فَلَمْ تَكُنْ لَهُ بَيِّنَةٌ ، فَاسْتَحْلَفَ الْمَطْلُوبَ ، فَحَلَفَ بِاللَّهِ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : بَلَى ، قَدْ فَعَلْتَ ، وَلَكِنْ قَدْ غُفِرَ لَكَ بِإِخْلَاصِ قَوْلِ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ

" ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : يُرَادُ مِنْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَأْمُرْهُ بِالْكَفَّارَةِ .
