What is the ruling on using electric shocks during ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation)?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
There is a practitioner in our country who uses electric shocks during ruqyah, and these shocks usually cause a bruise on the patient's body. He asks: What is the advice in such a case, and should one go to him?

Answer:
No, do not go to him. This harms the one who goes to him with the electric shock. I mean, there is no treatment in the electric shock; there is no treatment in it, but rather it is torture. Yes.
