The Ruling on Selling Amulets in Ruqyah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, he says: I sell amulets for ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) to those who want them. What is your opinion on writing amulets and selling them as well?

Answer:
We do not know what is written in these amulets. Today, people seek money by any means, even through lying and superstition. The words might be kufr (disbelief), sihr (sorcery), or shirk (associating partners with Allah); we do not know about this. Therefore, expanding in this matter is not permissible. Yes.
