A: Wearing amulets and hanging them in cars and shops is not permissible, as it is minor Shirk. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “Anyone who wears an amulet has committed Shirk.” and “Incantations, amulets and love-charms are Shirk.” Therefore, wearing amulets is prohibited, even if they include the Qur’an, according to the more correct of the two opinions of the scholars, because the evidence that forbids the wearing of amulets is general and there is no evidence to make it specific. Wearing amulets is a means to Shirk; therefore, the prohibition on wearing amulets blocks the means leading to Shirk and preserves the sanctity of the Qur’an. Anyone who wants to get into a car in which an amulet is hung should remove it, because this is a way of refuting Munkar (that which is unacceptable or disapproved of by Islamic law and Muslims of sound intellect). Nevertheless, hanging these amulets does not take one out of Islam, because it is minor Shirk, as long as the owner does not believe that they can bring benefit or remove harm instead of Allah. Traveling with this person will not harm you, as long as you do not accept this and you express your disapproval of the act. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “Anyone of you who sees an evil action, let them change it with their hand (by taking action); if they cannot, then with their tongue (by speaking out); and if they cannot, then with their heart (by hating it and feeling that it is wrong); and that is the weakest of Iman (faith).” (Related by Muslim in his "Sahih [Book of Authentic Hadith]") (Part No. 14; Page No. 471) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
