Explicació
The reality is that amulets, or charms, are not useful and helpful means; they are mere superstition. The Shariah [Islamic law] does not prohibit using worldly means while also acknowledging that core trust and reliance should be placed in God Almighty above any other means. After trust has been placed in God, worldly means can be used but not amulets, bad omens or superstition.It is clear from the Holy Quran that the disbelievers are those who take bad omens:
اِنَّا تَطَیَّرْنَا بِکُمْ
(They [disbelievers] said, 'Surely we augur evil fortune from you...")
