Is Ruqya restricted to what is narrated in The Quran and The Sunnah Only |Shaykh Saleh Al-Fawzan

🔉The questioner asks: Is Ruqyah (Islamic exorcism/incantation) Tawqeefi (restricted to prescribed texts), or is Tajurbah (working based on experience) permissible, given that it is for treatment and not for worship, and may Allah reward you?

Shaykh Saleh Al-Fawzan: What is Ruqyah…. (pardon)…?

Questioner: Restricted to prescribed texts?

Shaykh Saleh Al-Fawzan: How is it restricted? Ruqyah is by the Quran and by supplications, and by supplications that conform to the Book and the Sunnah. Even if its exact wording is not explicitly mentioned, as long as it conforms, even if its exact wording is not explicitly mentioned, there is no harm in that. So it is not restricted to prescribed texts. Yes. Allah Almighty knows best, and may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad. End of the answer.
