The Ruling on Hanging a Portion of the Qur'an Around the Neck to Treat a Headache
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: A man suffers from a constant headache, and he has consulted doctors but found no cure with them. Is it permissible for him to hang something from the Qur'an around his neck to treat this condition?
Answer:
By Allah, there is scholarly disagreement on this. Hanging amulets falls under the category of hanging amulets. However, some scholars have granted a dispensation for them if they consist of the Qur'an or permissible supplications, while others have prohibited it due to the general prohibition against amulets. This latter view is stronger and better.
