Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ سَمِعَ سَالِمًا عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سَمِعَ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْ
هُ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ وَأَبِي وَأَبِي فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَنْهَاكُمْ أَنْ تَحْلِفُوا بِآبَائِكُمْ قَالَ عُمَرُ فَوَاللَّهِ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا حَلَفْتُ بِهَا ذَاكِرًا وَلَا آثِرًا

Sufyan narrated to us, from al-Zuhri, who heard Salim from his father, that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ heard 'Umar رضي الله عنه saying: 'By my father! By my father!' He said: 'Indeed, Allah forbids you from swearing by your fathers.' 'Umar said: 'By Allah, I never swore by them again after that — neither from myself nor quoting from another.'
