The ruling on placing a mushaf around a child to protect him

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Placing a mushaf around a child to protect him from evils and from the jinn, what is the Shaykh’s opinion on that?

Answer:
This is not permissible; this is from taking up barriers and amulets. If she wants to protect her child, she should protect him with the prescribed daily recitation. She reads the Qur’an and supplicates to Allah to preserve him, to protect him, and to ward off the devils from him. The prescribed daily recitation is for her and for her children. This is what is prescribed. Yes.
