Is Ruqyah a Textual Matter or a Matter of Ijtihad?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : A question about Ruqyah. Is the practice of Ruqyah a textual matter or a matter of ijtihad? That is, if we try a specific method that is free from shirk (associating partners with Allah) based on this text, is this permissible or not permissible?
The Shaykh : Within the limits of the conditions you mentioned, I see that it is permissible, provided there is nothing that contradicts the Shari'ah, such as imagining that there are hidden secrets or imagining that there are also intangible harms. With the condition and restriction you mentioned, I see no harm in it.
Perform Ruqyah as long as it does not involve shirk.

With the condition and restriction you mentioned, I see no harm in it.
