Receiving fees for making amulets

Q 2: A person wrote amulets to another in return for a fee, but the latter learned afterward that wearing amulets is impermissible in Islam. Should he pay to the writer of these amulets his fees or not?


A: It is prohibited to wear amulets whether it contains Qur’anic Ayahs (verses) or any other. Since wearing them is prohibited, then it is not permissible to receive or pay money for writing them.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
