QUESTION: I found a small pouch in my father’s car that seems to contain soil or sand. He believes it offers protection for him or the car — essentially, it appears to be a taweez. Would it be permissible for me to discreetly empty the contents and replace them with regular soil, so that he doesn’t notice the change?
