Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. What is the ruling on wearing it? Is it imitating the disbelievers?
Answer:
And what is the caller, young men? There is no benefit in it. In fact, they say it is an imitation of hanging the cross. The Muslim is not one who hangs the cross, so why would he put it on? It is close, meaning, it is close to hanging the cross. There is no good in it. No good in it. Leaving it is undoubtedly further from imitating the disbelievers and further from the prohibited.
