What is the ruling on using supplication as protection from material dangers, such as "Labbaik Allahumma Labbaik," and seeking healing through it?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : ... "Labbaik Allahumma Labbaik" ... sincere ... a great hadith, glory to Allah the Great, and His words: what You will happens, and what You do not will does not happen.
The Shaykh : Glory be to Allah.
The questioner : "Indeed, You are my guardian in this world and the Hereafter. Cause me to die as a Muslim and join me with the righteous." Muhammad went to the ceiling where the fan is, a plastered area ... and the second piece of plaster remained hanging as it was. Muhammad said to his mother, "Watch out, the plaster might fall on you." She said to him, "Don't worry, leave us alone, we have the supplication 'Labbaik Allahumma Labbaik.'"
The questioner : So then it appears that there is nothing in it, meaning the matter is clear.
The Shaykh : By Allah, at first I did not understand your question.
The questioner : Yes, Shaykh.
The Shaykh : But now, when Abu Abdullah says, "By Allah, this is a gathering, and ...," I say it is strange that this issue might be asked about, whether it breaks the fast or not.
The questioner : Yes, my Shaykh.
The Shaykh : But I would have liked you to build on the fact that you do not know what my story is, like my case.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : So you ask why they put it there ... .
The questioner : It is, my Shaykh, excuse me, your words are correct. I may have overstepped in presenting the question, which was that a brother among our brothers used to issue rulings to people on this issue, meaning he was not a questioner who asked.
The Shaykh : ... .
The questioner : Yes, the point, my Shaykh, is that the place of your question is valid, and it must be clarified for what purpose it is placed, yes.
The Shaykh : ... it was not hidden from you.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : So I tell you, for example, for seeking healing.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : He will tell you it is for entertainment, tell him put it in a share ... .
The student : ... the bead ... the bead.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : Glory be to Allah.
