According to the view that amulets are not permissible, even if they contain words from the Qur’an and adhkaar, which is the view favoured on this website, then what appears to be the case is that this action – which is holding the Mushaf to your chest when wanting to sleep – is not permissible.4,821Recitation of Soorat al-Baqarah and the qareen
