evil eye - Tying a string over which verses of Qur’aan have been recited

Is it permissible to recite the Qur'an over a piece of string, etc,
and tie that over a child's wrist to protect him from the evil eye or
other diseases?
Alternatively, is it permissible to place Qur'anic Ayat in a small
metal capsule and tie it over the wrist of Muslimsto serve as
protection from the evil eye or mishaps.
People in my communitydo both of this very frequently. They get the
local masjid imam to provide the service. I do not want to do this for
my child unless there is asound basis for it in the Shari'ah.
Please help me find out the truth.
Praise be to Allaah.
It is not permissible to tie this string or any other kind of amulets.
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Whoever
hangs up an amulet, may Allaah not fulfil his need."
And he said: "Whoever hangs up anything will be abandoned to its
care," and, "Whoever hangs up an amulet has committed shirk."
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) commanded us
to tear away these things, as stated in the hadeeth narrated from
'Imraan ibn Husayn, which says that the Prophet (peace and blessings
of Allaah be upon him) saw a man onwhose hand was a bracelet of brass.
He said, "What is this bracelet?" He said, "It is to prevent
weakness." He said, "Take it off, for it will only make you more
weak."
