Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the meaning of what the author mentioned in his statement: "The amulets and shrines that are inhabited"?

Answer:
Indeed, people exalt things and believe in many things and rely upon them. Do we take, do we take everything they believed, everything they said, and everything they did, and say, "These are the deeds, these are the sayings of scholars, and these are the sayings of people before us"? The answer is no. We subject their sayings and their actions to the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).
Yes. So for you to take, to take the position of one group over another, this is ruling without evidence. There is no distinction between some of them and others. As long as the sayings are those of created beings who are not infallible, they are all equal. Do not rely on anything from them except what is indicated by the evidence. Otherwise, you would be required to take the sayings of the astrologers, the sayings of the star worshippers, and the superstitious people, yes.
