حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا جُوَيْرِيَةُ، قَالَ ذَكَرَ نَافِعٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " مَنْ كَانَ حَالِفًا فَلْيَحْلِفْ بِاللَّهِ أَوْ لِيَصْمُتْ ".

Musa ibn Ismaʿil narrated to us: Juwayriya narrated to us, saying: Nafiʿ mentioned, from ʿAbdullah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Prophet ﷺ said: “Whoever is to swear an oath should swear by Allah or remain silent.”
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The Arabic states “swear by Allah or remain silent”; the witness’s explanatory note about swearing by no other than Allah is not in this wording.
