Islam Question and Answer - Ruling on amulets and hanging them up; do amulets ward off the evil eye and hasad (envy)? (http://www.islamqa.com/en/ref/10543/amulets)

ahlus sunnah wal jamah: Is Taweez ( AMULET) allowed in Islam? (http://ahlussunnahwaljamah.blogspot.com/2008/01/is-taweez-amulet-allowed-in-islam.html)

One must not believe anything else has the power to heal or protect us except Allah.

Do the obligatory acts and make dua and recite the zikr prescribed for mornings and evenings,these are better than wearing amulets which may lead one to shirk.
