Is it prescribed for every person to perform ruqyah (healing by Qur'anic recitation), or is this specific to certain individuals?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible for every person to perform ruqyah, or is this specialized for certain individuals?

The Shaykh:
One must know the rulings of ruqyah; it is necessary that he knows the rulings of ruqyah, what is permissible in it and what is not permissible. Some people read in the books of the superstitious and come to perform ruqyah on people with them in order to take money; they take it as a profession. Yes.

The presenter:
This happens.

The Shaykh:
One finds many ruqyah practitioners who have books of the superstitious and use them, and what led them to this was attracting people to them and taking money. Yes.
