Ruqyah is a form of du'a and supplication that involves the recitation of specific Quranic verses and authentic prophetic invocations for the purpose of healing and protection. It is not a means of communicating with spirits it is an act of worship directed solely to Allah.

No. The use of Taweez, written charms or amulets worn for protection is a BIDAH and in many instances SHIRK. It is not prophetically sanctioned practice and falls outside the bounds of the Shariah.

Yes. Self-Ruqyah is encouraged and is in many ways the most beneficial form, as it strengthens your personal reliance upon Allah.

No. Visiting shrines or seeking intercession through the deceased for healing has no basis in the Quran or authentic Sunnah and may constitute shirk. All healing is sought from Allah alone.

Be cautious of any practitioner who: Asks for your mother's name, place of birth, or personal clothing or belongings Uses unknown symbols, numbers, squares, or letters in their treatment Provides you with Taweez, buried objects, or items to place in your home Asks you to perform unusual rituals at specific times or locations such as graveyards or crossroads Charges excessive fees or demands payment before any assessment has taken place Communicates with or claims to have Jinn working for them

Yes, and this is one of the most serious dangers facing those who seek help from unverified practitioners. Magicians often come out in the garb of faith, pretending to be pious, and place advertisements presenting themselves as healers. A practitioner who asks for your mother's name, requests personal items such as clothing, hair, or photographs, uses incense rituals, or provides sealed amulets containing symbols and numbers is not a healer these are signs of someone who is in obedience to devils and using them for their purposes. Visiting such a person, even out of desperation, is a gravely serious matter in the sight of Allah. Resorting to such practitioners does not solve the problem it exacerbates it, multiplying the harm. A person afflicted by a single act of magic may end up under the influence of multiple spells, entering a continuous cycle of suffering. The Prophet ﷺ warned us that whoever visits a fortune-teller or sorcerer and believes what they say has disbelieved in what was revealed to Muhammad ﷺ. This is not a matter to take lightly.

Make sincere tawbah to Allah, cease all contact with that individual immediately, and discard any objects, Taweez, or items they may have provided you with. You can begin by reciting the prescribed morning and evening adhkar as well as the authenticated ayahs and surahs for protection consistently and seek out a legitimate practitioner for a proper assessment and treatment if needed. Allah's mercy is vast and His forgiveness is without limit for those who turn back to Him sincerely.

No. There is no such thing as good or beneficial magic. Magic itself is inherently disbelief, as it involves invoking the devil and violating the sanctity of religion. It is impossible for magic to ever be considered noble or harmless. Anyone who claims to use magic for healing purposes is engaging in an act of kufr regardless of their intention.
