2100. It was narrated from 'Abdullāh bin Buraidah that his father told that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Whoever says: 'I have nothing to do with Islam,' if he is lying then he is as he said, and if he is telling the truth, his Islam will not be sound." (Hasan)
2100 - حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ رَافِعٍ الْبَجَلِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ وَاقِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ قَالَ إِنِّي بَرِيءٌ مِنَ الْإِسْلَامِ، فَإِنْ كَانَ كَاذِبًا، فَهُوَ كَمَا قَالَ، وَإِنْ كَانَ صَادِقًا لَمْ يَعُدْ إِلَى الْإِسْلَامِ سَالِمًا»

It is strictly forbidden to take an oath like this. This type of carelessness shows disrespect to Islam, whereas Islam is invaluable in the sight of a true Muslim, for which he is prepared to give his life. Whoever has this type of disrespect for Islam such that he utters words rejecting Islam for minor issues; he shows how little and insufficient his Faith is!
