Question:
This questioner says: I am sick, and one of the imams gave me an amulet with numbers written in it. He says it is written in it. Numbers, he says it is related to the surahs of the Qur'an. His question is: Is it permissible for me to seek healing with this amulet?
Answer:
First, amulets are not permissible to adopt according to the correct view, even if they are from the Qur'an, even if they are verses from the Qur'an, it is not permissible to hang them according to the correct view of the scholars. So how about if they are from other than the Qur'an? These numbers, it is not permissible to believe in numbers. This is not permissible. This is the work of the Batiniyyah; they are the ones who have the numbers. It is not permissible. So burn it. Burn this amulet. Yes.
