Taking a person afflicted with the evil eye to the ruqah practitioners and the criterion for a Shari'ah-compliant ruqah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is Abu Salim from Hufar al-Batin. He says: My sister is suffering from an illness, and we believe she is afflicted with the evil eye. Should we take her to one of the ruqah practitioners who treat such cases? And how do I know whether it is a Shari'ah-compliant ruqah or not?
Answer:
You go to the well-known ruqah practitioners who are recognized by the people and known for their good character. As for the unknown ruqah practitioner, you do not go to him. Ruqah has now become a trade, a source of investment, and people who are not qualified for it have entered it out of a desire to gather money. So you must ask about this ruqah practitioner, get to know him, his creed, his knowledge, and what he uses to treat, and then go to him. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
