A claim regarding the survival of personal relics of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Some people and some countries mention that there are personal relics of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that have remained until this time.

Answer:
This is a lie, this is a lie. And this leads to these relics, which they claim, being taken as an object of worship other than Allah and seeking blessing from them. So it is not permissible. Nothing remained after the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) except his Sunnah and what he brought (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
