6301. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "Whoever among you takes an oath wherein he says, 'By Al-Lāt and Al-'Uzza,' (names of two idols worshipped by Al-Mushrikūn), he should say, 'Lā ilāha illallāh (none has the right to be worshipped but Allāh)'. And whoever says to his friend, 'Come, let us gamble!' He should give something in charity."(1) [See Hadith No. 6650.]

Arabic text

6301 - حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي حُمَيْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " مَنْ حَلَفَ مِنْكُمْ فَقَالَ فِي حَلِفِهِ: بِاللَّاتِ وَالعُزَّى، فَلْيَقُلْ: لاَ إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ، وَمَنْ قَالَ لِصَاحِبِهِ: تَعَالَ أُقَامِرْكَ، فَلْيَتَصَدَّقْ "

    (1) (H. 6301) The expiation for swearing by other than Allāh heedlessly, is to say: 'Lā ilāha illallāh'; and the expiation for inviting somebody to gamble even if jokingly, is to give something in charity.
