Question:
He says: Shaykh, regarding the recitation of al-Fatihah one hundred times, we have read that it is recited one hundred times to fulfill needs, to bring back the absent, and for other purposes.
Answer:
This is an invalid and denounced matter, and it is not permissible, because there is no evidence for it from the Book of Allah or from the Sunnah of His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). Al-Fatihah is recited in the prayer; there is no prayer for one who does not recite al-Fatihah, the Book of Allah. And al-Fatihah is recited as a ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) for the sick person or for oneself. Yes.
