Taking an Oath, “I must not be given the Taufeeq of reciting the Kalimah when I die.”

1. A qasam, (oath) will not come into effect if a person says: “I must not be given the Taufeeq of reciting the Kalimah when I die.”
2. The purport of this statement is that “I should die with Imaan, but I must not be able to recite the Kalimah verbally.!”
3. When dying it is outstanding for the Kalimah to be recited verbally.
4. If the meaning of such a statement is taken in places to mean that the person should lose his Imaan when dying, then the ruling of it is what was mentioned in the mas-alah, ‘Terrible Oaths, But which Come into Effect’.
5. That is, the oath takes effect and a kaffaarah will have to be given if it is broken.
