Is it permissible for a disbeliever to perform ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) on a Muslim?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: It is known that it is permissible for a disbeliever to perform ruqyah on a Muslim.

Answer:
How can one say that? It is not permissible for a disbeliever to perform the Shari'ah-prescribed ruqyah, nor does he hold the correct belief regarding it. Furthermore, it is a condition for the one performing the ruqyah that he be sound in his creed and be from the people of tawhid (the oneness of Allah). Yes.
