The Rules of Ruqya, by Sheikh Sâlih Âl AL-SHAYKH

The subject of the Ruqya is of paramount importance since it concerns us all: every Muslim needs the Ruqya, to protect himself as well as his relatives and all those he loves so that it is a rampart and a protection against misfortunes and the influence of the devils.

It is all the more important for the Muslim to be well informed about the Ruqyas that a confusion has arisen between the different types of Ruqyas: those permitted and those prohibited, the legal one and those innovated, even polytheistic.

This is why it is up to you, dear brother, dear sister, to practice only the Ruqyas whose legality you know, since the basic principle in this matter is the prohibition with the exception of the Ruqyas which are permitted.

Knowledge of the rules and conditions of the Ruqya is therefore essential.
