Writing amulets from the Qur'an or from other sources on clothing for the purpose of healing

The questioner:
May Allah reward you. The sender, Abu Khalid al-Shayb from Bahrain, sent a number of questions. In the first one, he asks: What is the ruling on wearing a hijab with verses from the Qur'an written on it for the purpose of healing? By hijab here, he means the head covering that is placed on the head.

The Shaykh:
It is not permissible to hang amulets. If these amulets are from other than the Qur'an, from other than the prescribed supplications, they are forbidden, and it is shirk (associating partners with Allah) with Allah the Exalted.

The presenter:
Peace be upon you.

The Shaykh:
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever hangs an amulet has committed shirk." As for if they are from the Qur'an or from permissible supplications, the same applies; according to the correct opinion of the scholars, it is not permissible to hang them, because this falls under the prohibition of hanging amulets. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not distinguish between amulets made from the Qur'an and those made from other sources, nor between amulets that are on paper and those that are on clothing, because this is among the means of shirk, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came with blocking the means that lead to shirk. What is prescribed is ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation), which is reciting directly over the patient while blowing on him, or reciting over water and then having the patient drink it. This is what is prescribed.
