Is a ring upon which a shaykh has recited considered an amulet, and is it permissible to continue treatment with this shaykh who claims to send a Muslim jinn to fortify the house, and requests a ring to recite upon it for the purpose of protection from sorcery and obstruction of marriage?

Whoever faces problems or fears the effects of devils and sorcerers must adhere to the obligatory duties and frequently recite remembrances (dhikr) and protective supplications (tahsinat), such as reciting Surat Al-Baqarah, for Allah will suffice and protect them. Sheikh Ibn Uthaymeen said that the prescribed incantations (awrad shar'iyyah) are an impregnable fortress, and that people's heedlessness of them and their weak reliance on Allah are reasons for the spread of magic and envy. One should also be wary of imagining magic and attributing all problems to it, for often the causes are religious or tangible worldly matters, and sins are among the most significant causes of trials (fitan). It is not permissible to seek help from those who seek help from jinn. It is preferable to perform ruqyah (self-exorcism/healing recitation) for oneself and one's home with the Qur'an. If there is a need for a raqi (one who performs ruqyah), let him be known for his righteousness and piety. One must beware of amulets, such as rings with verses recited upon them, as they are forbidden by Sharia.
