2055. ‘Aqqār bin Al-Mughīrah bin Shu‘bah narrated from his father who said that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “Whoever seeks treatment by cauterization, or with Ruqyah, then he has absolved himself of At-Tawakkul (reliance upon Allāh).”[1] (Hasan) [Abū ‘Eisā said:] There are narrations on this topic from Ibn Mas‘ūd, Ibn ‘Abbās, and ‘Imrān bin Huşain. [Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Ṣaḥīḥ.
٢٠٥٥ - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ ، عَنْ عَقَّارِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنِ اكْتَوَى أَوِ اسْتَرْقَى» فَقَدْ بَرِئَ مِنَ التَّوَكُّلِ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، وَعِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

Ruqyah i.e., recitation of the Qur’ānic Verses or Allāh’s most beautiful Names and attributes, authenticated by the Prophet ﷺ, over a patient suffering from some disease, or the evil effects of sorcery etc. is mentioned here, with one who does it and relies on it not on Allāh. Also, words whose meaning is either obscure or goes against the Islamic principle of Monotheism must be avoided at all costs.
