The Raqi Who Claims to Deal with the Jinn

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: There is a raqi who claims that he deals with the jinn and that he talks to them. Is this considered du'a' (supplication) for the absent?

Answer:
This is not permissible, and he does not perform ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation) in a valid manner. It is necessary that he be reported to the authorities, specifically the head of the Department of Enjoining Good and Forbidding Evil, so that he can be taken into custody.
