Question:
What is the ruling on amulets that are made from the Qur'an?
Answer:
The Salaf differed on this. Some of them said that it is not permissible to hang them, even if they are from the Qur'an, because it leads to believing in them and also leads to hanging things that are not permissible. If the door is opened for them, they will be dragged into forbidden things. So, to block the means to harm, this is prohibited. It is sufficient that he recites for him, that he recites for him over water and he drinks it, or that he writes for him on papers and erases them and he drinks the water, and this suffices instead of writing it on the person and hanging it on a paper of what they call a protective amulet. Yes.
