Is there a legal impediment to avoiding psychiatrists and going to Ruqah practitioners?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: If a person stops going to the psychiatrist because the treatment harms him, and instead goes to a Ruqah practitioner, is there a legal impediment to this?

Answer:
There is no legal impediment. Correct Ruqah is better than psychological treatment, without doubt. Yes.
