The ruling on wearing a ring or a thread without believing in its benefit or harm
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. You mentioned in your program that if a person wears a ring or a thread and does not believe that it brings benefit or harm, then there is nothing wrong with it. Is it not better to prohibit wearing them, even without such a belief, in order to block the means to harm?
Answer:
If he wears it for a need, meaning he does not wear a ring, a ring is not a need. He does not put on a thread to tie something on his body, meaning if there is a wound on his body or something like that, he does not tie it with a thread. If there is a need, there is no sin.
