٦٦٤٧. Narrated Ibn 'Umar رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا: I heard 'Umar saying, "Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said to me, 'Allāh forbids you to swear by your fathers.'" 'Umar said, "By Allāh! Since I heard that from the Prophet ﷺ, I have not taken such an oath, neither intentionally, nor by reporting the oath of someone else.”

6647 - حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُفَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ سَالِمٌ: قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ: سَمِعْتُ عُمَرَ، يَقُولُ: قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَنْهَاكُمْ أَنْ تَحْلِفُوا بِآبَائِكُمْ» قَالَ عُمَرُ: فَوَاللَّهِ مَا حَلَفْتُ بِهَا مُنْذُ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ذَاكِرًا وَلاَ آثِرًا قَالَ مُجَاهِدٌ: {أَوْ أَثَارَةٍ مِنْ عِلْمٍ} [الأحقاف: 4]: يَأْثُرُ عِلْمًا تَابَعَهُ عُقَيْلٌ، وَالزُّبَيْدِيُّ، وَإِسْحَاقُ الكَلْبِيُّ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، وَقَالَ ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، وَمَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، سَمِعَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عُمَرَ
