Is the method mentioned—a therapeutic program from a licensed shaykh that includes ruqyah (exorcism), bathing with water, salt, and apple cider vinegar, and anointing the body with musk and olive oil—correct for treating a wife who suffers from nightmares, physical pain, and hearing voices calling out, and whom the shaykh informed is enchanted, possessed, and afflicted by the evil eye?
