Sahih al-Bukhari 5875 (Book 78, Hadith 134)

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said: “Whoever amongst you swears, (saying by error) in his oath ‘By Al-Lat and Al-
Uzza’, then he should say, ‘None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.’ And whoever says to his
companions, ‘Come let me gamble’ with you, then he must give something in charity (as an expiation
for such a sin).” (See Hadith No. 645)

حَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَوْزَاعِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا الزُّهْرِيُّ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏
“‏ مَنْ حَلَفَ مِنْكُمْ فَقَالَ فِي حَلِفِهِ بِاللاَّتِ وَالْعُزَّى‏.‏ فَلْيَقُلْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ‏.‏ وَمَنْ قَالَ لِصَاحِبِهِ تَعَالَ أُقَامِرْكَ، فَلْيَتَصَدَّقْ ‏”‏‏.‏
