INVOLUNTARY OATHS

1858

“Whosoever swears an oath and involuntarily says, 'By al lat and al uzzah (pagan gods)'; should at once bear witness that there is no god except Allah. And whosoever says to his Companion: 'Come, let us gamble.' Should give charity.’

Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Abu Hurairah who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
