Taking an oath that one will become a kaafir through carrying out a certain action

· 28 Rabiʻ I 1438 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I am a Hanfi. I want to ask that if someone swears by God or by Quran that I will not do this evil or any sinful thing for this much time and if I done it, Allah should made me kafir. Then if he cant keep it, what will happen, Is he going to be a kafir or not?

Answer

He will not become a kaafir. It is really a foolish thing to risk your imaan.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
