Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : Is it permissible to sit continuously for ruqyah, whether with the Qur'an or with the well-known supplications, such that he performs ruqyah on those who know they need it and those who do not?
And is it also permissible to sell this ruqyah for a price, such that he buys water, for example, for one riyal and sells it after the recitation for five riyals?
The Shaykh : It is not permissible, but you say that he uses ruqyah for those who need it and those who do not need it. How is that?
The questioner : He does not ask them.
The Shaykh : How?
The questioner : He does not ask them. This patient or this person who attends his gathering comes to him, and he recites over him. He has a standing session for ruqyah only.
The Shaykh : No problem, but who comes to him, those who need ruqyah or those who do not?
The questioner : He does not ask them, "O Shaykh, Allah knows if he needs it or not."
The Shaykh : Are you saying that?
The questioner : The one who needs it and the one who does not come to him, and he does not ask them. The person comes, and he does not ask if you need it, or what is wrong with you, or something like that. In other words, does he carefully determine whether he sees that the person needs ruqyah or not?
The Shaykh : In any case, every question has an answer, and I have answered you. But I ask you to be precise in reporting the facts. Every question has an answer, and I have answered you.
