Methodology

Theruleswewillnotbend.

Written down so you can hold us to them.

وَنُنَزِّلُ مِنَ ٱلْقُرْءَانِ مَا هُوَ شِفَآءٌ وَرَحْمَةٌ لِّلْمُؤْمِنِينَ

Wa nunazzilu minal-Qur’āni mā huwa shifā’un wa raḥmatun lil-mu’minīn

And We send down of the Qur’an that which is healing and mercy for the believers.

Al-Isrā’ 17:82 · Sahih International

Eight rules

Thethreeconditionsofthescholars,andfiveofourown.

01Condition of the scholars

Only the words of Allah, His names and attributes, and the authentic du‘ās

The first condition of permissible ruqyah agreed by the scholars.

02Condition of the scholars

In Arabic, or in words whose meaning is understood

No hidden words, no symbols, no mumbling — the second condition.

03Condition of the scholars

Belief that ruqyah has no effect by itself; the cure is from Allah alone

The third condition. The reciter is a means, never a source.

04Our rule

Medicine alongside, always

We ask every reader to exhaust medical options in parallel. Not every illness is spiritual.

05Our rule

The Sunnah cures only

Black seed, olive oil, honey, Zamzam, sidr, recited water — prepared as described in the Cures section, with safety notes.

06Our rule

No magicians, no ‘white magic’, no amulets

We refuse nushrah of the prohibited kind, jinn ‘helpers’, talismans, ta‘wīdh, and anything that resembles the practice of the sāḥir.

07Our rule

Mahram present for women, no seclusion

For every one-to-one session and every consultation.

08Our rule

Ruqyah itself is free

Only a scheduled 30 or 60-minute consultation is paid. Donations are optional. See About.
