The Ruling on Hanging an Amulet (Tamimah) Containing Verses and Hadiths

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner asks: Does the one who hangs an amulet containing verses from the Qur'an or from the hadiths of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) leave Paradise?

Answer:
No, it does not take him out of the religion, as long as the writing in it is from the Qur'an, or from the Sunnah, or from the prescribed supplications. It does not take him out of the religion, but it is forbidden to do so, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Whoever hangs up an amulet, Allah will not complete [his affair] for himمَنْ عَلَّقَ تَمِيمَةً فَلا أَتَمَّ اللَّهُ لَهُ
Sunan al-Bayhaqi 17:557
.
And whoever hangs an amulet, Allah will not complete [his protection] for him.وَمَنْ عَلَّقَ وَدَعَةً فَلا وَدَعَ اللَّهُ لَهُ
Sunan al-Bayhaqi 17:557
, so one should refrain from hanging amulets, even if they are from the Qur'an. The cut. Yes.
