Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for a Muslim to perform ruqyah on a disbeliever?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with performing ruqyah on him, just as one would give him medicine, if he is a non-Muslim granted safe conduct who has a covenant with them.
As for a hostile non-Muslim, no. But if he is a non-Muslim granted safe conduct with a treaty, there is nothing wrong; one may perform ruqyah on him or treat him, or help him with some money if he is poor.
