Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Some ruqah practitioners on television channels, when people call them and complain to them about certain illnesses, the practitioner asserts that the caller has sorcery or the evil eye, and asks him to recite for a specific period, such as a month or otherwise. His question is: Is this practice prescribed? And is it permissible to set this time for the ruqah?
Answer:
It is permissible to call them? These are liars and sorcerers, false prophets. So it is not permissible to call them or ask them. Why do you ask the people of knowledge, my brother? You go and ask on the channels and satellite stations, and you have the people of knowledge. We ask the people of knowledge. Yes.
