The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: A custom has spread among some of the worshippers in these days, which is that people recite the Mu'awwidhat after every prayer, then blow into their hands and wipe their bodies with them. Is this practice prescribed, or is it a bid'ah (religious innovation)?
The Shaykh:
This is done at sleep; everyone does it at sleep, with himself, with himself. As for after the prayer, he recites it without, without blowing and wiping; he recites it as a regular recitation, he recites it as a regular recitation after the prayer. Yes.
The questioner:
And between.
The Shaykh:
As a ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation), as a regular recitation. Yes.
