Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What is the ruling on what is called the tasbih ring?
The Shaykh:
What is it that occupies the marketing?
The questioner:
The ring, may Allah keep you safe, has appeared now; it is worn and used to count the tasbih?
The Shaykh:
No, a fatwa has been issued by the Permanent Committee prohibiting this. A fatwa was issued prohibiting it. Tasbih is done with the fingers; that is better. Or one may use pebbles, counting the tasbih with pebbles, as Juwayriyah, the Mother of the Believers, did; there is no harm in that. As for a ring or a counter, that is not permissible. Yes.
