English translation

3804. It was narrated from 'Abdullâh bin Yasâr, from Qutailah, a woman from Juhainah, that a Jew came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: "You are setting up rivals (to Allâh) and associating others (with Him). You say: 'Whatever Allâh wills and you will,' and you say: 'By the Ka'bah.'" So the Prophet ﷺ commanded them, if they wanted to swear an oath, to say: "By the Lord of the Ka'bah;" and to say: "Whatever Allâh wills, then what you will." (Sahîh)

Arabic text

3773 - أَخْبَرَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ عِيسَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُوسَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مِسْعَرٌ، عَنْ مَعْبَدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ قُتَيْلَةَ، امْرَأَةٍ مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ: أَنَّ يَهُودِيًّا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: إِنَّكُمْ تُنَدِّدُونَ، وَإِنَّكُمْ تُشْرِكُونَ تَقُولُونَ: مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ وَشِئْتَ، وَتَقُولُونَ: وَالْكَعْبَةِ، " فَأَمَرَهُمُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا أَرَادُوا أَنْ يَحْلِفُوا أَنْ يَقُولُوا: وَرَبِّ الْكَعْبَةِ، وَيَقُولُونَ: مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ، ثُمَّ شِئْتَ "

Commentary

The Ka'bah is a created being, and swearing or taking an oath by something which is created (by Allâh) is not lawful.
