Zulfiqar Necklace

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by ShariahBoard.org

Assalamualaikum,

I was wondering if it is okay to wear a Zulfiqar Necklace like a plain Zulfiqar necklace? Most people have told me that it’s werid since its a Shia thing but we also believe that Hazrat Ali رضی اللہ عنہ was given the sword, so is it okay to wear one?

Jazakallah

الجواب وباللہ التوفیق

This is correct that Hazrat Ali رضی اللہ عنہ was given the sword named Zulfiqar but to wear a necklace on this basis does not bear any connection. Further, you have not mentioned the reason and the occasion this necklace is worn and when the people tell this act to be the act of the Shias then we should completely avoid it.
