Salah behind an Imam believing in Hulul

Q 2: What is the ruling on someone who makes or writes amulets? Is it permissible to pray behind such a person after advising him?


A: Amulets may be an act of Shirk (associating others with Allah in His Divinity or worship) or Haram (prohibited). (Part No. 7; Page No. 363) They are prohibited as a precautionary procedure to blocking the means to sins. The person in question should be advised. If he refuses the advice, then it is not permissible to perform Salah behind him and he should be replaced with another Imam.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
