What is the treatment for a bewitched girl who completely refuses to pray, spends a lot of time in the bathroom, and whose behavior changes to become irritable, violent, and averse to acts of worship?
The treatment for magic is through ruqyah (exorcism) using the Quran, especially the two Mu'awwidhat (Surahs Al-Falaq and An-Nas), Ayatul-Kursi (the Verse of the Throne), Prophetic supplications, and maintaining the morning and evening remembrances (adhkar). Ibn Kathir mentioned that the two Mu'awwidhat are the most beneficial cure for magic. It was also narrated from Wahb ibn Munabbih a treatment using seven green leaves of the Sidr tree (lote tree); these are to be crushed and mixed with water, upon which Ayatul-Kursi and the 'Qawaqil' (Surahs Al-Kafirun, Al-Ikhlas, Al-Falaq, and An-Nas) are recited. Then, the person drinks from it and bathes with it. As for what has befallen the girl, such as her refusal to pray and her wish to leave Islam, we hope that she will not be held accountable for it due to the effect of magic on her mind.
