Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Some people have camels of the expensive variety, and their value can reach astronomical prices. Some of them may fall ill. Is it permissible to perform ruqyah on them? And how is that done? And if one recites some of the Qur'an over water and then makes the camels drink it, is this action permissible?
Answer:
First, the exaggeration and squandering of wealth, and the rising of the value of camels to imaginary levels, this is not permissible. This is a manipulation of wealth. As for treating the camels, if this is beneficial, there is no harm in it. If it is beneficial, there is no harm in that. And better than this is that you pasture them yourself and on your own wealth. Yes.
