The Ruling on Combining Lawful Ruqyah with Medical Treatment

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, a questioner says: If a person is ill and wants treatment, is it sufficient for him to rely on lawful ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) and Zamzam water, without going to the hospitals, or not?

The Shaykh:
He does both: he performs the lawful ruqyah and goes to the hospitals.

The presenter:
Yes.

The Shaykh:
A night and a half.

The presenter:
Praise be to Allah.

The Shaykh:
And treatment with permissible medications; he combines them. These are beneficial means, by the permission of Allah. It is not prevented that if he is treated with ruqyah, he goes to the doctors and the hospitals.
