It seems to me that this is not permissible even if you don’t believe in it because it is simulating those who disbelieve in Allah and believe in charms.

Sheikh. I have a land where I intend to cultivate crops next month. In this part of the country (Nigeria) we usually experience theft. Is it ok if I use things like a red piece of cloth to tie at various points around the fence of the farm to simulate a scare-crow. In this case however, it will be assumed that the field is charmed. This is to keep thieves and other intruders away.
