The Ruling on Tying a Thread on a Pregnant Woman to Prevent the Fetus from Falling

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Excellency the Shaykh, a listener from Yemen says: What is the ruling on one who recites some verses of the Qur'an on a thread, then ties seven knots in it, and binds this thread on the body of a pregnant woman, saying this is so the fetus will not fall? Please give us a ruling on this, may Allah reward you with good?

Answer:
These are knots of evil. This is not prescribed, so it is not permissible, and this is a false belief. Yes.

The presenter:
Yes, may Allah bless you.
