The Ruling on Mocking Ruqyah and Claiming that Medicine Suffices in Its Place

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I ask the Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, about one who mocks ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) and says that a newborn child is sufficient without it. What is his ruling?

Answer:
I am between two possibilities: either he is ignorant and says what he does not know, or he knows but is a lying soldier, and he does not believe in the Book of Allah or the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). There is no doubt that this is very serious speech.
And it is disbelief in Allah (Mighty and Majestic), and disbelief in His verses. It is He who created medicine, it is He who revealed the Book, and He informed that it is a healing and mercy for the believers. It is He who created the father, it is He who created medicine, it is He who revealed the Book, and He informed that it is a healing. It is He who commanded us to call upon Him, and He promised us that He will respond to us. There is no contradiction between this and that.
