The Principles of Lawful Ruqyah and Its Conditions

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, in your view, this questioner, Abu 'Abdullah, asks: What are the principles of correct, lawful ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation)? And is it permissible for a person to recite over himself and his children if something befalls them?

Answer:
Lawful ruqyah is what comes from the Book of Allah the Exalted or from the lawful supplications, and one places his reliance on Allah the Exalted, believing that healing is from Allah and that the ruqyah is a cause, that the ruqyah is one of the causes, while the healing itself is from Allah the Exalted. It is prescribed for a person to perform ruqyah on himself, and this is better, and likewise to perform ruqyah on his children, and this is better. Yes.
