( أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو طَاهِرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مَحْمِشٍ الْفَقِيهُ، أَنْبَأَ أَبُو حَامِدٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى الْبَزَّازُ، ثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ الْمَكِّيُّ، ثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ:
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ سَمِعَ عُمَرَ ؓ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: وَأَبِي وَأَبِي. فَقَالَ: إِنَّ اللهَ يَنْهَاكُمْ أَنْ تَحْلِفُوا بِآبَائِكُمْ. قَالَ عُمَرُ: فَوَاللهِ مَا حَلَفْتُ بِهِ ذَاكِرًا وَلَا آثِرًا

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ heard ʿUmar ؓ saying: "By my father, by my father!" So he said: "Indeed Allah forbids you from swearing by your fathers." ʿUmar said: "By Allah, I have not sworn by it since, neither intentionally nor by repeating the words of others."
