Sahih Muslim Hadith 4261 – Whoever Swears By

English

[4261] ( … ) It was narrated from Az-ZuhrI with this chain (a Hadit.h similar to no. 4260), and the HadIth of Ma'mar is like the HadIth of Yünus, except that he said: "Let him give something in charity." In the 1-IadW/i of Al- Awzâ'l it says: "Whoever swears by al-Lât and A1-'Uzza." Abü Al-Husain Muslim said: This phrase – meaning: "Come, I will gamble with you" – was not narrated by anyone except Az- ZuhrI. Az-ZuhrI had approximately ninety phrases which he narrated from the Prophet and no one else narrated them with any reliable chain of narrators.
