The ruling on prayer and worship while wearing an amulet

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: What is the ruling on a person who prays or performs any of the acts of worship while wearing an amulet?

Answer:
The worship is valid, but it is forbidden for him to wear the amulet. Indeed, ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation), amulets, and divination are shirk (associating partners with Allah). So the amulet that a person wears to ward off or remove calamity is a form of shirk. Yes. Yes.
