The truth is we do know Ruqyah. We have learnt about it in primary school maddressa. Our Ulama have learnt the Hadith which speak about Ruqyah in our Darul Ulooms. In fact most of us have at sometime in our lives practiced Ruqyah! Shocked? Don’t be! So what exactly is Ruqyah? Ruqyah means reciting Qur’an and supplications (Duas) reported from the Messenger of Allah r over someone as a means of protection, or over the sick as a means of being cured. It is an excellent means of cure. Nabi used to recite over the sick and so did the Sahaabah, may Allah be pleased with them.
