7. Ali has narrated from his father from through the same chain of narrators as that of the previous Hadith the following is narrated from al-Sakuniy who has narrated the following
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, has said, ‘If one takes an oath privately, he must make the exception privately; and if one takes an oath in public, he must make the exception in public.’”
7- عَلِيٌّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنِ السَّكُونِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) مَنْ حَلَفَ سِرّاً فَلْيَسْتَثْنِ سِرّاً وَمَنْ حَلَفَ عَلانِيَةً فَلْيَسْتَثْنِ عَلانِيَةً.
