The Shaykh:
What is it?
The questioner:
Hanging amulets containing Qur'anic verses specifically is considered shirk (associating partners with Allah).
The Shaykh:
I have not heard the detailed discussion. Some of the Salaf (the earliest generations) say that amulets are forbidden absolutely, whether from the Qur'an or otherwise, due to the generality of the hadiths. Some of them say that it is not forbidden if it is from the Qur'an. This is a dispensation (rukhsah) granted by some of the Salaf because it is from the Qur'an, and ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) with the Qur'an is prescribed. Yes.
