The ruling on going to those who practice ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) and claim to deal with the jinn

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a message received by fax from a questioner who says: Some practitioners of ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) claim that they deal with Muslim jinn. Is it permissible for us to go to them and receive this ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) from them?

Answer:
These are sorcerers who make this claim, asserting that they connect with the jinn. This is all deception and lying. Do not go to them; it is not permissible to go to them because they are sorcerers. Yes.
