Requesting Ruqyah for Another (e.g., a Child): Does This Fall Under the Hadith of Those Who Enter Paradise Without Reckoning (... and do not seek Ruqyah ...)?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : If a woman asks her husband to perform Ruqyah on her son... her son, her wife, and her son... "do not seek Ruqyah" falls under this category.

The Shaykh : You will get the answer: What is the recompense for those who seek Ruqyah?

The questioner : They do not enter Paradise, according to the hadith of 'Ikamah.

The Shaykh : I am telling you, a hadith or a verse, give me what the answer is.

The questioner : ...
or with Ruqyah, then he has absolved himself of At-Tawakkul (reliance upon Allah). من استرقى فقد بريء من التوكل
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2055Hasan (Darussalam)
and not one who applied cauterization?

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner :
'Aqqar bin Al-Mughirah bin Shu'bah narrated from his father who said that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: "Whoever seeks treatment by cauterization, or with Ruqyah, then he has absolved himself of At-Tawakkul (reliance upon Allah)." من اكتوى فقد بريء من التوكل
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2055Hasan (Darussalam)
.

The Shaykh : No, one who applied cauterization. Abu Muhammad gave you the key.

The questioner : No, they do not enter Paradise...

The Shaykh : The recompense, the recompense is that they are not among the seventy thousand who enter Paradise without reckoning or punishment. Now, if that is the case, can a small child fall under this?

The questioner: No.

The Shaykh : Then.

The questioner : ... its ruling

The Shaykh : It is not for herself, but for her child.

The questioner : I mean, if we said to Abu Layla, "By Allah, perform Ruqyah for us on this child."

The Shaykh : Yes, there is nothing wrong with this. Istirqa' is requesting Ruqyah from another person.
