Cross of Agadez Islam Symbols Necklace

Although commonly referred to as a Muslim cross, there is actually no bearing of it on Islam or Christianity.

The four arms of the cross are used as a means of protection to keep evil at bay. Generally, the cross of Agadez is used as a protective amulet. It is generally considered a symbol of faith, religious devotion, and a way to protect against negative energy and evil.
