3257. Thābit bin Aḍ-Ḍaḥḥāk narrated that he swore allegiance to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ beneath the tree, and the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “Whoever swears by a religion other than Islam, telling a deliberate lie, it will be as he said, and whoever kills himself with something, he will be punished with it on the Day of Resurrection, and a man cannot vow concerning that which he does not possess.” (Ṣaḥīḥ)

Arabic text

3257 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو تَوْبَةَ الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ نَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ سَلَّامٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو قِلَابَةَ، أَنَّ ثَابِتَ بْنَ الضَّحَّاكِ، أَخْبَرَهُ: أَنَّهُ بَايَعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَحْتَ الشَّجَرَةِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ حَلَفَ بِمِلَّةٍ غَيْرِ مِلَّةِ الْإِسْلَامِ كَاذِبًا، فَهُوَ كَمَا قَالَ، وَمَنْ قَتَلَ نَفْسَهُ بِشَيْءٍ عُذِّبَ بِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ، وَلَيْسَ عَلَى رَجُلٍ نَذْرٌ فِيمَا لَا يَمْلِكُهُ»
