If you want to seek healing through the Qur'an, is it obligatory to intend that, or is simply reading the Qur'an sufficient?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah keep you safe. He says: May Allah reward you. If I want to seek healing through the Qur'an, is it obligatory to intend that, or is simply reading the Qur'an sufficient?

Answer:
The intention determines the act. If you intend ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation), it becomes ruqyah. If you intend recitation, it becomes recitation. If you intend teaching and learning, it becomes teaching and learning, according to your intention. Yes.
