Question:
If a person has an epileptic fit, who reads the Qur'an over him? Does he have to take him to a scholar, or is it sufficient to have one of the committed people do it?
Answer:
Any Muslim can read over him; it is not a condition that he be taken to a scholar. Rather, anyone who is good at reciting the Qur'an and has sound belief should read over this afflicted person and perform ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) on him. This is one of the causes of healing, by the permission of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). Yes.
