The ruling on hanging amulets and necklaces to ward off the evil eye
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Also, among the questions he sent to the program, he asks about hanging amulets and necklaces to ward off the evil eye. What is their ruling?
Answer:
Hanging amulets is not permissible. Whoever hangs an amulet, Allah will not complete his well-being. This is a supplication from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Because this is one of the means of shirk (associating partners with Allah), and the amulets may contain shirk or mention things that conflict with faith, or diminish faith, religion, and creed. So one should not look at these amulets. If they are from the Qur'an and from permissible supplications, they are not hung, but are applied directly to the patient by blowing and reciting over him, and the reader blows over him, and healing is by the permission of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Yes.
