Taking futile oaths
Question
Can we take an oath by the name of Allah not to think of someone? Is it acceptable as an oath or not?
Answer
Don't resort to such stupid things which you will not be able to cope with.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
