The Verses and Supplications by Which a Person Performs Ruqyah on Himself

Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner, Abu 'Abdullah, says: Honorable Shaykh, what are the hadiths that a sick person recites over himself, and does he place his hand on the site of the pain in his body when reciting?

Answer:
Yes, he recites Surat al-Fatihah, al-Ikhlas, and the two Mu'awwidhat in his palms, then he blows into his palms, and then he wipes with his palms as much of his body as he can, just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do that. As for the hadiths, he recites the hadiths that contain seeking refuge, the lawful forms of seeking refuge, such as: "I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah from the evil of what He created," , "I seek refuge in the perfect words of Allah, which no righteous person or sinner can surpass, from the evil of what He created and sowed and brought forth, from the evil of what descends from the sky and what ascends in it, from the evil of what enters the earth and what comes out of it, and from the evil of the trials of the night and the day, and from the evil of the sudden events of the night and the day, except a knock that knocks with good to the Merciful." And he says: "In the name of Allah, I perform ruqyah on you from every disease that afflicts you, from the evil of every soul and every envying eye. I ask Allah to heal you." And he says: , and so on, supplicating with what has been transmitted. Yes.
