Asalaam-wa-alaikum. I would like to ask about Taweez.

Question

If a taweez is made by a respected Aalim for pious reasons is accidently torn but hardly any of the text is affected except for a tiny section of one letter the size of a dot, does this affect the effect of the taweez?

Answer

If the alphabets on the Taweez are no more there, it will not be a Taweez any longer.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
