of hisasws said to himasws, ‘O sonasws of Rasool-Allahsaww! In yourasws presence is a
woman who disavows from yourasws grandfathersaww’. So myasws fatherasws judged that
heasws divorces her’. So she claimed for her dower upon him. So she went over with
himasws to the Emir of Al-Medina claiming it. So the Emir of Al-Medina said to himasws,
‘O Ali (Bin Al-Husaynasws)! But, youasws either swear an oath or youasws giver her, her
right’. So heasws said to measws: ‘Arise, O myasws sonasws, so give her four hundred
Dinars’. So Iasws said to himasws: ‘O Fatherasws! May I be sacrificed for youasws! Are
youasws not rightful?’ Heasws said: ‘Yes, myasws sonasws! But, Iasws delayed the swearing
of an oath by Allahazwj patiently’.5

Abu Abdullahasws has said: ‘When there is a claim upon you for wealth, and there
does not happen to be for him upon you (a right), and he intends that you swear an
oath, so if it reaches a valued of thirty Dirhams, so give it to him and do not swear an
oath, and if it is more than that, so swear an oath and do not give it to him’.6

is that he swears (an oath) upon a right of a Muslim person on withholding of his
wealth’.14

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Mahboub, from Malik Bin Atiyya, from
Abu Ubeyda Al Haza’a,

(It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’farasws having said: ‘In the Book of Aliasws is that
the false oath, and the cutting-off of relationships both devastate the houses to be
deserted from its inhabitants, and locks the wombs, meaning the cutting-off of the
lineage’.15

‘locks the wombs’?’ Heasws said: ‘It sterilises’.16

Ali, from his father, and Muhammad Bin Ismail from Al Fazl Bin Shazaan, both together from Ibn Abu
Umeyr, from Ibrahim Bin Abdul Hameed, from a sheykh from our companions with a teknonym of Abu
Al Hassan,

(It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’farasws having said: ‘Allahazwj Blessed and High
Created a white rooster, its neck is beneath the Throne, and its feet as in the edge of
the seventh firmament. For it is a wing in the east and a wing in the west. The
roosters (of the world) do not shriek until it shrieks. So whenever it shrieks, it flaps
with its wings, then says: ‘Glory be to Allahazwj! Glory be to Allahsaww the Magnificent,
Who does not resemble anything’. So Allahazwj Blessed and High Answers it, so
Heazwj is Saying: “He would not swear by Meazwj falsely, the one who recognises what
you are saying”.17

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Hadeed, from one of our

(It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah asws having said: ‘The oaths are three – and
oath for which there is no expiation in it, and an oath in which there is an expiation,
and a calamitous (false) oath Obligating the Fire. So the oath in which there is no
expiation, is the man swearing by Allahazwj upon the door of righteousness that he
did not do it. So his expiation is that he does it; and the oath in which the expiation is
Obligated, is the man swearing upon the door of disobedience that he did not do it.
So the expiation is Obligated upon him; and the calamitous (false) oath which
Obligates the Fire, is the man swearing upon a right of a Muslim person, to withhold
his wealth’.25

himself to walk to the House of Allahazwj and the sacrifice’. He (the narrator) said,
‘And he swore with every harsh oath, ‘I shall not speak to my father, ever, nor shall I
testify for him goodly, nor shall he eat with me upon the table, ever, nor will I and him
share the roof of a house, ever’. Then he was quiet. So Abu Abdullahasws said: ‘Does
there remain anything?’ He said, ‘No, may I be sacrificed for you asws’. Heasws said:
‘Every cutting-off of a relationship, so it is not with anything’. 30

‘A woman from the progeny of Al-Mukhtar swore an oath upon her sister or a relative
of hers, so she said, ‘Come closer and eat with me’. So she said, ‘No’. So she swore
and made it upon herself the walking to the House of Allah azwj, and free what she
owned (slaves), and she would never shade herself and her under the roof of one
house, nor eat with her upon a table, ever’. So the other one said similar to that.

So Umar Bin Hazala carried both their speeches to Abu Ja’far asws. So heasws said:
‘Iasws shall judge regarding that. Say to her, ‘Let her eat, and let her be shaded, and
her under the roof of one house, and neither to walk (to the Kaaba), nor free a slave,
and let her fear Allahazwj her Lordazwj, and not to exceed to that, for this is from the
footsteps of the Satanla’.33

be a gift for the House of Allahazwj, if she lends her belongings to so and so, and so
and so, so some of her family lend these without her instructions. He asws said: ‘There
is no sacrifice upon her. But rather, the sacrifice is what she made for the sake of
Allahazwj as a gift for the Kaaba. So that is what needs to be fulfilled with, when it is

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Mahboub, from Sa’ad Bin Abu Khalaf
who said,

‘I said to Abu Al-Hassan Musaasws, ‘I had bought a slave girl secretly from my wife,
and that reached her. So he went out from my house and refuses to come back to
my house. So I went to her in the house of her family, so I said to her, ‘That which
has reached you is false, and those who came to you with this are your enemies
intending to cause separation for you’. So she said, ‘By Allah azwj! There is never
going to be goodness between me and you, ever until you swear an oath with the
freeing of every slave girl of your, and with the giving of your wealth in charity, if you
have bought a slave girl and she in your possession today’.

So I swore an oath for her with that, and made me repeat the oath and said to me,
‘So say, ‘Every slave girl of mine at the moment, so she is hereby free’. So I said if to
her, ‘Every slave girl of mine at the moment, so she is hereby free’. So I relinquished
my slave girl and had thought that I would free her and marry her for my desire with
regards to her’. So heasws said: ‘There is nothing upon you with regards to what you
have sworn upon, and know that it is not allowed, neither the freeing of a slave nor
charity until what is intended by it is the Face of Allahazwj and Hisazwj Reward’.43

‘I heard Abu Abdullahasws saying: ‘There is not any expiation in every oath. But
whatever was Obligated from what Allahazwj upon you to do, so you swear that you
will not do it, (and then) you do it, so there is no expiation upon you regarding it; and

From him, from Sa’ad Bin Sa’ad, from Muhammad Bin Al Qasim Bin Al Fazl, from Hamza Bin
Humran, from Dawood Bin Farqad, from Humran who said,

‘I said to Abu Ja’farasws and Abu Abdullahasws, ‘The oath which necessitates the
expiation upon me’. So they both said: ‘Whatever you have sworn upon (if it is) from
what is obedience for Allahazwj therein if you were to do it, so you do not do it, then
upon you is the expiation with regards to it; and whatever you swear upon (if it is)
from what is the disobedience for Allahazwj therein, so its expiation is that you leave it;
and whatever does not happen to have in it a disobedience, nor an obedience, so it
is not with anything’.59

the chattels that he would not sell it, and not buy it, then he changes (his mind)
regarding it, so he disbelieves in his oath; and if he swears upon something, and the
doing of which is better than leaving it, so let him do that which is better, and there

Zurara,

(It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’farasws having said: ‘Every oath one swears upon
that he would not do it, from what for him therein is a benefit regarding the world and
the Hereafter, so there is no expiation upon him. But rather, the expiation is in if the
man swear, ‘By Allahazwj I will not commit adultery!’ and ‘By Allahazwj I will not drink
the wine!’ and ‘By Allahazwj I will not steal!’ and ‘By Allahazwj I will not be treacherous’,
and the likes of this, and ‘I will not disobey!, then he does it, so upon him is the
expiation with regards to it’.64

(necessitates) an expiation, from the oaths. So he asws said: ‘Whatever was
(Obligatory) upon you to do it, so you swear that you would not be doing it, then you
do it, so there is nothing upon you; and whatever did not happen to be Obligatory
upon you to do it, so you swear that you will not do it, then you do it, so upon you is
the expiation’.65

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, and Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, both
together from Ibn Mahboub, from Abu Ja’far Al Ahowl from Sallam Bin Al Mustaneer,

(It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’farasws regarding the Words of Allahazwj Mighty
and Majestic [20:115] And We had Given a Covenant to Adam before, but he
forgot; and We did not find determination in him. So heasws said: ‘When Allahazwj
Mighty and Majestic Said to Adamas: “Enter the Paradise!”, Said to himas: “O Adamas!
[7:19] and do not go near this tree, and Heazwj Meant himas. So Adamas said to
hisas Lordazwj, ‘How can Ias go near it and Youazwj have Forbidden meas from it, Ias and
myas wife’.

Heasws said: ‘So Heazwj said to both of themas: “Do not to go near it, Meaning do not
eat from it’. So Adamas and hisas wife said: ‘Yes, O ouras Lordazwj, weas will not go
near it, nor eat from it’, and theyas did not say: ‘Allahazwj Willing’ in both theiras
speeches of ‘Yes’. Thus Allahazwj Left them both to themselves, and to their
memories’.

adding, "If Allah so Desires it”. If yousaww do not do it, so the Desire of Allahazwj
would Precede with regards to it if yousaww do not do it, not being able upon doing it.
Thus, it was due to that, Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic Said [18:24] and remember
your Lord when you forget, i.e., exclude the Desire of Allahazwj in your deed’.68

man should swear except by Allahazwj. So as for the words of the man, ‘No, by your
adversary!’, so it is from the worlds of the people of the ignorance, and if the man
were to swear by this, and the likes of it he would have neglected the swearing by
Allahazwj. So as for the words of the man, ‘‫’ َيا َه َيا ْه َو َيا َه َنا ْه‬, but rather that is for seeking
the name, and Iasws do not see by it any evil; and as for his words, ‘ ‫َّللا‬ ِ َّ ‫’لَ َع ْم ُر‬, and his
َ so rather that is (swearing) by Allah
words, ‘ُ‫’َل َهاه‬, azwj

man where he is saying ‘No, by your adversary!’, so rather it is from the words of the

Heasws said: ‘The (people of the) pre-Islamic period used to revere the Sanctuary and
were not swearing by it, nor by the month of Rajab, nor were they violating to the one
who was in these two, going or coming, even if his father had been killed, nor for
anything would they expel from the Sanctuary any stray animal, or sheep, or camel,
or other than that. So Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic Said to Hisazwj Prophetsaww [90:1]
Indeed! I swear by this city [90:2] And you are a dweller of this city’.

said,

‘I asked himasws about the Words of Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic [56:75] So do not

swears by it. And the people of the Pre-Islamic period were revering the Sanctuary
and were not swearing by it, permitting its sanctity for the Sake of Allah azwj in it, and
were not violating to the one who was in it, nor expelling an animal from it.

So Allahazwj Blessed and High Said [90:1] Indeed! I swear by this city [90:2] And
you are a dweller of this city [90:3] And father and son. They were revering the
city if they were to swear by it, and they permitted in it the (violation of) sanctity of

(It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullahasws having said: ‘With regards to an
expiation for the oath, he should feed ten poor ones, for each poor, a handful from
wheat, or a handful from flour; or their clothing, for each human being, two clothes;
or freeing of a neck (slave); and he would be with the choice in that, whichever of the
three he does. So if he is unable over (even) one from the three, so the Fasting is
upon him, for three days’.85

cannot find (means) then fasting for three days. What is the limit of the one who
does not find, and if the man were to be asked with regarding to what is in his hand,
and he finds it’. So heasws said: ‘When there does not happen to be with him any
excess from the livelihood of his family, so he is from the ones ‘who cannot find’’. 86

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Najran, from Aasim Bin Humeyd, from Muhammad Bin
Qays who said,

‘Abu Ja’farasws said; ‘Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic Said to Hisazwj Prophetsaww: “[66:1]
O Prophet! Do not deny (yourself) that which Allah has made lawful for you
[66:2] Allah indeed has Sanctioned for you the expiation of your oaths. So
Heazwj Made it to be an oath, and Rasool-Allahsaww expiated it’. I said, ‘With what did
hesaww expiate?’ Heasws said: ‘Hesaww fed ten poor, for each poor being a handful’. We
said, ‘So what is the limit of the clothing?’ Heasws said: ‘A cloth by which his
nakedness can be covered’.88

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, Bin Abu Nasr, from Abu Jameela,

Abu Abdullahasws has said: ‘With regards to an expiation of the oath, (it is) freeing of
a neck, or feeding ten poor from the average of what you feed your families, or their
clothing, and the average (food) is the vinegar, and the oil, and the high (quality) of
bread, and the meat, and the charity of a handful, a handful from wheat to each of
the poor, and the clothing being two clothes. So, the one who cannot find, so upon
him is the Fasting. Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic is Saying [5:89] but whosoever
cannot find (means) then fasting for three days’.89

as if he happens to be like the one who happens to be in the house, one who eats
more than the handful, and among them is one who eats less than the handful. So it
is between that, and if he so desire to, he can make for them some (curry) sauce,

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Muhammad Bin Ismail, from Muhammad

‘I asked Abu Abdullahasws about a man who says, ‘Upon me is a vow’. Heasws said:
‘The vow is not with anything until he names something for the Sake of Allah azwj, a
Fast, or a charity, or an offering, or Hajj’.100

Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from Ali Bin Abu Hamza, from Abu Baseer who said,

‘I asked Abu Abdullahasws about the man who is saying, ‘Upon me is a vow’. Heasws
said: ‘It is not with anything until he names the vow and is saying, ‘Upon me is a Fast
for the Sake of Allahazwj, or a charity, or freeing (a slave), or an offering of a gift. And
if the man says, ‘I gift this food’, so this is not with anything, but rather the camel is
an offering’.101

Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Al Husayn Bin Saeed, from Al Qasim Bin Muhammad, from Jameel Bin

‘There used to be a slave girl with me at Al-Medina, so her menstruations were


raised (stopped). So I made a vow upon myself for the Sake of Allahazwj if she were
to menstruate. So I came to know afterwards that she had menstruated before I had
made the (specifics of the) vow. So I wrote to Abu Abdullah asws, and I was at Al
Medina. So heasws answered me: ‘If she has menstruated before the vow, so it is not
upon you, and if she has menstruated after the vow, so it is upon you’.102

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Safwan, from Is’haq Bin Ammar who said,

‘I said to Abu Abdullahasws, ‘I have made it upon myself, a gratefulness for the Sake
of Allahazwj, two Cycles that I shall be Praying during the staying and the travelling.
Shall I Pray these two in the travel by the day?’ So he asws said: ‘Yes’. Then heasws
said: ‘Myasws fatherasws disliked the obligation if the man obligates upon himself’. I
said, ‘I did not make these two (obligatory) upon myself for the Sake of Allah azwj. That
is upon me to Pray these two as a gratitude for Allah azwj, and I did not make these
two an obligation upon myself. So, can I fulfill these whenever I so desire to?’ He asws
said: ‘Yes’.103

So it was said to him, ‘Get married, then go for Hajj’. So he said, ‘If I can get married
before I can go for Hajj, so my slave is free’. So he got married before he went for
Hajj’. So heasws said: ‘He should free his slave’. So I said, ‘He did not intend to free
him for the Sake of Allahazwj’. So heasws said: ‘He had vowed in obedience to Allahazwj,
and the Hajj is more rightful than the marriage, and it is more Obligatory upon him
than the marriage’. I said, ‘Suppose if the Hajj was optional (for him)?’ He asws said;
‘Even if it was optional, so it is an obedience to Allahazwj which has freed his slave’.105

there is no Fasting of it upon you during a journey, nor an illness, except if you had
intended that; and if you were to break a Fast from it from without a reason, so give
in charity with the number of each day (missed), to seven poor ones. We asws ask
Allahazwj for the inclination to what Heazwj Loves and is Pleased with’.108

Allahazwj that if Heazwj was to Heal me from something which I was afraid of upon
myself, I would give in charity with the entirety of what I own; and Allah azwj Mighty

a canopy from the ruins of the Helpers, and have carried every thing what I owned,

So Abu Abdullahasws said: ‘Go and evaluate your house, and the entirety of your
belongings, and whatever you own with a just price, and recognise that. Then take to
a white parchment and write down in it all of whatever you have evaluated. Then
look around to a reliable one of the people with regards to yourself, so hand over the
parchment to him, and bequeath to him and instruct him that if there were to occur
an event with you, an event of the death, that he should sell your house and the
entirety of whatever you own, so he should give it in charity with it on your behalf.
Then return to your house, and evaluate upon what was in it. So consume, you and
your family, similar what you used to consume.

Then consider everything you give in charity with, with regards to what faces you
from the charity, or helping the relatives, or in the aspects of righteousness, so write
that down, all of it, and count it. So whenever it is the start of the year, so go to the
man to whom you had bequeathed to, and instruct him that he should bring the
parchment out to you. Then write in it the total of whatever you have given in charity,
and the expenses upon your relatives, or righteous deeds during that year. Then
keep on doing that during every year until you have fulfilled for Allah azwj with the
entirety of what you had vowed in it, and there would remain for you, your house,
and your wealth, Allahazwj Willing’.

‘My mother had made vow upon herself. She vowed for Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic
regarding one of her children with regards to something which she had feared over
him, that she would be Fasting on that day which had come upon her, for as long as
she lived. So she went out with use to Makkah. So that was confusing upon us, for
her to be Fasting during the journey. So she did not know when she should be
Fasting or breaking it. So I asked Abu Ja’farasws about that, so heasws said: ‘She
should not Fast during the journey. Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic has Placed
(dropped) it from her, being her right in the journey, and she should be Fasting what
she had made it to be upon herself’. So I said to him asws, ‘So what would be that

From him, from his father, from Ibn Mahboub, from Ali Bin Raib, from Misma’a who said,

‘I said to Abu Abdullahasws, ‘There was a slave girl of mine who was pregnant. So I
vowed for Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic that if she were to give birth to a boy, I would
send him for Hajj, or I would perform Hajj on his behalf’. So he asws said: ‘A man
vowed for Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic regarding a son of his, that when he is
mature he would either perform Hajj of his behalf, or send him to Hajj. So the father
dies and the boy matured afterwards. So the boy came to Rasool-Allahsaww, to ask
himsaww about that. So Rasool-Allahsaww ordered him that he should perform Hajj on
his behalf, from what his father had neglected’.123

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from Haroun Bin Muslim, from Mas’ada Bin Sadaqa, from a Sheykh from the sons of
Udayy Bin Hatim, from his father,

(It has been narrated) from his grandfather Udayy, and he was with Amir Al-
Momineenasws during hisasws wars, that Amir Al-Momineenasws said during the day
heasws met Muawiya (in battle) at Siffeen, and the voices were raised by it for his asws
companions to hear: ‘By Allahazwj! Iasws will kill Muawiya and his companions’, then
heasws was saying at the end of hisasws speech: ‘Allahazwj Willing’, lowering by it hisasws
voice, and heasws was near to it’.

So I said, ‘O Amir Al-Momineenasws! Youasws swore upon what youasws would do, then
made the exclusion. So what did youasws intend by that?’ So heasws said to me: ‘The
war is tricky, and Iasws am not a liar in the presence of the Believers. So Iasws intended
that Iasws exhort myasws companions against them, so perhaps they would not be
discouraged, and would be desirous regarding them. So the most understanding of
them would benefit by if after today, Allahazwj Willing.

from Uqba Bin Khalid,

(It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullahasws regarding a man who had a debt upon
him for a man, so he enforced it. So the enforced one said that every Permissible
upon him is Prohibited if he continues until he satisfies him. So he went out from him
before he had pleased him. How should he deal with it, and he does not know what
is the extent of his oath, and there was no intention of his for it?’ Heasws said: ‘It is not
with anything’.126

He (the narrator) said, ‘But I did not see himasws strike him, so I said, ‘May I be
sacrificed for youasws! Youasws had sworn to strike yourasws slave, but I did not see you
strike him’. So heasws said: ‘Is Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic not Saying [2:237] and if
you forgive it would be nearer to piety’.127

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from one of his companions, from Aasim Bin Humeyd, from Abu

(It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullahasws having said: ‘The one who is frustrated
from (paying the) expiation which is Obligated upon him, be it a Fast, or
emancipating (librating), or a charity with regards to an oath, or a vow, or killing, or
other than that from what it Obligated upon its perpetrator the expiation in it, so there
is no seeking of Forgiveness is an expiation for him, except for an oath of the Zihaar.
So if he, when he does not find what he expiates with, it is Prohibited upon him that
he copulates with her, and there would be separation between the two of them,
except if the woman is pleased that there be togetherness between him and her’.128

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Safwan Bin Yahya, from Is’haq Bin Ammar,

(It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullahasws having said: ‘The Zihaar, when its
perpetrator is frustrated from the expiation, so let him seek Forgiveness from his
Lordazwj, and make the intention that he would not repeat before he copulates (with
his wife again). Then let him copulate, and that would suffice from him as the
expiation. So when he finds the way to what he can expiate with, on a day from the
days, so let him expiate, even if it be a charity, and feeding himself and his family, so
he has sufficed it, when he is a needy. And if he cannot find that, so let him seek
Forgiveness from his Lordazwj, and make the intention that he would not repeat it, so
that would count, by Allahazwj, as an expiation’.129

Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Al Husayn Bin Saeed, from Ali Bin Al Noman, from Abdullah Bin

‘I asked Abu Abdullahasws about a woman who entrusted a man with some wealth.

handed it over to you is for so and so woman’. So the woman died, and her
guardians came over to the man so they said to him, ‘There used to be some wealth
for our companion, but we do not see it except to be with you, therefore swear an
oath for us that there is nothing for us with you, anything’. Should he swear for
them?’ Heasws said: ‘If she (the deceased) was trusted (by her guardians), so let him
swear, and if she was an accused (by them) in his presence, so he should not
swear, and he should place the matter upon what it used to be. But rather, for her,
from her wealth, is a third’.134

seven persons from the Believers in a measurement of a provision for each man

at the declining of the blood, during the end of her (menstruating) days, before the
washing, so there is nothing upon him’.136

together from Ma’mar Bin Yahya,

(It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah asws, said, ‘I asked himasws about the man
who did ‘Zihaar’ from his wife. Is it allowed to free a new-born (slave) regarding the
expiation?’ So heasws said: ‘Every emancipation is allowed in which is the new-born
except regarding the expiation for the killing, for Allah azwj Mighty and Majestic is
Saying [4:92] he should free a believing slave, Meaning by that one who has
accepted (Al Islam) who has reached the (age of) wrongdoing’.138

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from one of his companions mentioning it, said,

‘When Al-Mutawakkil specified a vow that if it is fulfilled, he would give a lot of wealth
in charity, it was fulfilled, so he asked the jurists about a limit of the ‘lot of wealth’. So
they differed over it. Some of them said, ‘One hundred thousand’, and some of them
said, ‘ten thousand’. Thus they said differing statements over it confusing the matter.
So a man from his barmen called Saf’an said, ‘Why don’t you send (someone) to this
blackie to ask from him?’ So Mutawakkil said to him, ‘Whom do you mean, woe be
unto you!’ So he said to him, ‘Sonasws of Al-Rezaasws’. So he said to him, ‘And heasws
is better than this thing?’ So he said, ‘If he takes you out from this, so for me upon
you would be such and such, or else you can whip me one hundred lashes’.

master! He would be asking me about the reason with regards to it’. So Abu
Al-Hassanasws said to him: ‘Allahazwj Mighty and Majestic is Saying [9:25] Certainly,
Allah helped you in a lot of places – so the number of these places were eight’.144
