The ruling on going to a Qur'anic healer without verification
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner, Sa'd, asks: What is the ruling on one who goes to one of the healers using the Qur'an, and then it becomes clear to him that he is a false messiah (Dajjal), and he did not know about this matter? May you be rewarded.
Answer:
Why did he not verify his status and ask the people of trust and knowledge about him before going to him? Not everyone who performs ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) and treats with ruqyah is truthful in that, or has knowledge of ruqyah and its conditions. So, one should not go to just anyone; rather, he should ask the people of trust and knowledge about him. If he trusts him, he goes to him and asks him about the dream, and also gets treated by him with ruqyah. Yes.
