An inquirer asks, “A person frequently swears by Allah Almighty over both minor and major matters, to the point that it has become a habitual part of his speech. What is the proper religious guidance concerning this person’s behavior?”

Allah Almighty commands us to keep our oaths; He says, “And guard your oaths” (Quran, 5:89). He has also prohibited us from making them without a pressing need, out of reverence to Him. The greater a person’s veneration of Allah, the more perfect his servitude to Him. Part of perfect veneration of Allah is that His mention should be too lofty and noble for a Muslim to invoke in pursuit of worldly purposes.[1]

And Allah Almighty knows best.
