أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ فَقَالَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَهُوَ بِالْخِيَارِ إِنْ شَاءَ أَمْضَى وَإِنْ شَاءَ تَرَكَ " .

Ahmad ibn Sulayman reported to us; he said: ʿAffan narrated to us; he said: Wuhayb narrated to us; he said: Ayyub narrated to us, from Nafiʿ, from Ibn ʿUmar, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, who said: ‘Whoever swears an oath and says, “If Allah wills,” has the choice: if he wishes, he may carry it out, and if he wishes, he may leave it.’
