Quran verses about Oaths

Most of these verses concern swearing by Allah: witnesses called to swear at the time of a bequest, but also deceptive oaths, such as Satan presenting himself as a sincere adviser or disbelievers swearing there will be no resurrection. They also mention the oaths found in the Qur’an, by the Qur’an itself, by life and by the angels.
