Ruqyah Cirebon - Ruqyah is one of the Islamic healing methods by reading verses or prayers that come from Al-Qur'an and the sunnah of the Prophet. Ruqyah is also a way to ask Allah for protection from demons and jinn.
There are many Qur'anic arguments that explain that ruqyah is a syifa or medicine for Muslims. This is explained in the letter Al Isra verse 182 which reads:
Ù„ُ الْÙ‚ُرْاٰÙ†ِ ا اۤØ¡ٌ Ù„ِّÙ„ْÙ…ُؤْÙ…ِÙ†ِÙŠْÙ†َۙ Ù„َا الظّٰÙ„ِÙ…ِÙŠْÙ†َ اِÙ„َّا ارًا
Meaning: And We send down from the Qur'an (something) which is an antidote and a mercy for those who believe, while for those who do wrong (the Qur'an) it will only increase losses.
At the time of ignorance, ruqyah was called a spell recited by magicians and contained shirk. After teaching Islam appears, the Prophet allowed the practice of ruqyah as long as it does not contain shirk in it and must be based on the Shari'a.
Quoting the book Free of Diseases with Ruqyah by Said Abdul Azhim, from Auf bin Mali ra said, “We used to do ruqyah in the jahiliyah period. Then we asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what do you think about it?" He replied, "Show me your ruqyah. Ruqyah is okay as long as it does not contain shirk in it." (HR. Muslim)
The Prophet also practiced ruqyah for himself, his family and friends. In the book Ruqyah Syariyyah Therapy Services & Call Neural Massage in Cirebon explains, in two hadith mentioned:
From Aisyah ra said,
"When the Messenger of Allah felt sick he read Al Muawwidzatain (letters of protection) and then blew it on himself. When his illness worsens, I am the one who reads to him, then I wipe him with my own hand to hope for his blessing." (Narrated by Bukhari Number 4629)
In a hadith narrated by Ibn Majah, Ibn Abil ra said, "I came to the Messenger of Allah and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I experienced a disturbance in my prayer, so I did not know the reading of my prayer." The Messenger of Allah said, "That is the devil, come closer."
Then I approached the Messenger of Allah and sat in front of him. The Messenger of Allah recited a verse from the Qur'an and hit my chest and said, "Come out! O enemies of Allah." The Messenger of Allah repeated it three times.” (Narrated by Ibn Majah number 3538)
