Is it permissible to seek treatment through ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) for all illnesses?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is seeking treatment through ruqyah beneficial for all illnesses, such that a person should restrict himself to it?

Answer:
Seeking treatment through ruqyah is one type of treatment, and there are medicines that Allah has sent down, meaning He created them. So the Muslim combines ruqyah with medicines; there is no objection to that, and no contradiction between them. He should not restrict himself to medicines and leave off ruqyah, nor restrict himself to ruqyah and leave off the permissible medicines. Yes.
